Thievery Corporation

Amerimacka

Miss Liberty turn in a Jezebel

All the dreams you go sell, the whole them turn in a hell

Her bed of roses are filled with thorns

Her righteous robes are tattered and torn

If she had only stood for love, that would have been enough

She wouldn't have to hide her shame

If she had only stood for love, that would have been enough

But now she's burnt us all with her flames

Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful life

Amerimacka, is like licking honey off a knife

Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful sight

Amerimacka, don't be blinded by the light

The land of the free built on slavery

Our consciousness in captivity

Promise land is the liar's den

Your culture of greed has got to end

Now we're laying in the mud, looking up above

Tear wather just ah drop from the sky

They try to keep us in the mud, separating us from love

But me nah go let them conquer the I

Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful life

Amerimacka, is like licking honey off a knife

Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful sight

Amerimacka, don't be blinded by the light
