America

You were lost and got luck

Came upon the shore

Found you were conquering America

You spoke of peace

But waged a war

While you were conquering America

There was land to take

And people to kill

While you were coquering America

You served yourself

Did God's will

While you were conquering America

The ghost of Columbus haunts this world

'Cause you're still conquering America

The meek won't survive

Or inherit the earth

'Cause you're still conquering America

America

America

America

You found bodies to serve

Submit and degrade

While you were conquering America

Made us soldiers and junkies

Prisoners and slaves

While you were conquering America

America

America

America

Your hands are at my throat

My back's against the wall

Because you're still conquering America

We're sick and tired hungry and poor

'Cause you're still conquering America

You bomb the very ground

That feeds your own babies

You're still conquering America

Your sons and your daughters

May never sing your praises

While you're conquering America

America

America

America

I see you eyes seek a distant shore

While you're conquering America

Taing rockets to the moon

Trying to find a new world

And you're still conquering America

America

America

America

The ghosts of Columbus haunts this world

'Cause you're still conquering America

You're still conquering America

You're still conquering America
