Let me tell you something 'bout my country
Let me tell you something 'bout my (oh-oh-oh)
Let me tell you something 'bout my country
Small in size, but we manage to call it nice
We cost the world millions of people's lives
Indonesia, South Africa, to Palestine
Fuck!
We fucked it up
Fuck!
Yeah, fuck it up
Let me tell you something 'bout my country
She's on a path of war and destruction
Driven by imperialism as her main function
We got rich by robbery and violation
Well, let me tell you something 'bout my country
We committed and still support genocide
While we deny the facts of Bernheze
As long as we don't have to apologize
You should be grateful
Do you realize how rich your nation is?
You should be happy, you shouldn't be hateful
That you were born on this side of the world
Well, do you think?
Let me tell you something 'bout my country
Let me tell you something 'bout my country
Let me tell you something 'bout my country
Holland was guilty of apartheid in South Africa
(They're not; the first was a Nazi, and the second is a Thrumble)
Donate weapons to Israel (don't care about the child-kept enemies in Gaza)
President Trump is calling the refugee crises in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria unattached
Genocide in Srebrenica is never fully recognized (guilty of police violence)
He's literally a mess of capitalism (it's wanting privilege)
The royal family earns more than 50 million a year (glorifying the Golden Age)
How deep racism is institutionalized (and we were the last to abolish slavery)
Fuck!
Fuck!
Fuck!
Let's fuck it up
Don't go back
