Lyrics
America has been | America has been | Bushwacked | And those days won't pass so soon | With Team Bush and J McCain | Tryin' to fill his same shoes | Dousing the lights of hope | And walking us through those same blues | You know this land is already in pain | This land is already in pain | Because remember || America has been battered | And you may shrug it off but it matters | She keeps coming back to the fist | And holds on to kiss it at the wrist | Because she loves him || Lady Liberty thinks he'll protect her | And he will, from all but him | For only he can bring her the black and bruise | with knuckles wrapped in the red, white and blue | But she loves him || And she'll know what it means | She'll know what it means to be || America's blood has been splattered | As he hits her hard to the jaw, her teeth shattered | She believes she'll make do | But doesn't she deserve much better || And he says he loves her | But look what he did to Sister Katrina | She believes she'll make do | Doesn't she deserve much better || And she'll know what it means | She'll know what it means to be | Bushwacked | body wracked | Bushwacked | eyes blacked | Bushwacked | lenses cracked | Bushwacked | Oh Bushwacked || America has been battered | And you may shrug it off but it matters | She keeps coming back to the fist | And holds on to kiss it at the wrist | Because she loves him || Lady Liberty she thinks he'll protect her | And he will, from all but him | While he holds hands with her enemies | Spends their kids money into bankruptcy | But she loves him || And she dreams of him as famous men | Hitler, Stalin, the Marquis de Sade | She looked the other way for this butcher this bigot | So that he wouldn't leave her side || He strides in late at night | And crawls into bed | Now she knows where he has been | and she knows what he's done || She shivers at his cold touch | Wonders how long since he washed off the oil and the blood | And waits for the next time he turns on her | She waits for the next time he turns on her || And she knows what it means | Now she knows what it means | Now she knows what it means | Now she knows what it means to be | Bushwacked | Hopes dashed | Bushwacked | eyes blacked | Bushwacked | lenses cracked | Bushwacked | wheels of justice slashed | Bushwacked | Oh Bushwacked
