You Screwed the World...

By prodigy789

America, America
once so proud and free
Hysteria, hysteria
From sea to shining sea
O how I used to love you
O how I used to smile
Until the war that fucked us all
Came, the shame defiled

America, America
Long lost principles of old
Amnesia, amnesia
Across the amber waves of gold
O how you were the master
O how you were so brave
Until the day the foreign reign
Came, and made us slaves

America, America
Now you are a just a joke
Democracy, democracy
On just those words I choke
O how you stood for reason
O how justice you once served
Until the man with unjust plans
Came, and screwed the world
