Back in the USA lyrics

Verse 1]

I woke up to a bitter storm (bitter year)

And Noah’s Ark came washed up on the shore

The riot gear has lined the dawn (bitter year)

Like dogs that shit on your neighbor’s lawn

[Pre-Chorus]

Let freedom ring with all the crazies on parade

Let them eat poison and it tastes like lemonade

[Chorus]

Back in the USA for a small town serenade

With fireworks on display

Tonight, it’s a hero’s welcome home

And there’s no place else to go

And I’m takin’ it to the grave

Back in the USA

[Verse 2]

The saddest story ever told (bitter year)

Is feeling safe in our suburban homes

Like soldiers of an endless war (bitter year)

And every church can have a liquor store

[Pre-Chorus]

Let freedom ring with all the crazies on parade

Let them eat poison and it tastes like lemonade

[Chorus]

Back in the USA for a small town serenade

With fireworks on display

Tonight, it’s a hero’s welcome home

And there’s no place else to go

And I’m takin’ it to the grave

Back in the USA
