"Only In America" lyrics

In the land of make believe
In America go chase you fortune
Suicide on prime TV
Mass hysteria, the U.S. wants you

Malcolm X politics
Tricky Dick and dirty tricks
Sugar Ray, C.I.A., lost in Hollywood
Letterman, Disneyland
Luther King and Ku Klux Klan
Watergate, out in space
Armstrong on the moon

Ride on to life
It's what you make it
In God's country
Eye for an eye
This is only in America

From the piles of dollar bills
To the poor ones in the ghetto nation
And the riches on the Hill
Take advantage of illegal aliens

Iron Mike, take a bite
Stern is on the air tonight
Al Capone rock'n'roll
Elvis is alive
Kennedy for president
Shot in Dallas, 1 PM
Liberty, LSD
Lucy in the skies

Ride on to life
It's what you make it
In God's country
Eye for an eye
This is only in America

Sue you out for every course
Hypocrites and foreign wars
Brave new world
Brave new world

Ride on to life
It's what you make it
In God's country
Ride on to life
It's what you make it
Eye for an eye
This is only in America
Only in America
Only in America
