lyrics

Your greedy eyes are disguised by an arrogant guise
A bigoted grin masks the facts of your malodorous lies
Your skin a shade of yellow from fighting the toxin
Your liver gave up on fighting the poison your lost in
Every word you say an American worship
Idealising the obese, democratic dictatorship
My country has been turned to the big business gimp
The people have been fucked so hard they're starting to limp

God bless these United States of Australia
Do we really want to be...
God bless these United States of Australia
Anything like that country

The substance of life is second to an ancient book
Which is used to justify wars started by suited up crooks
I'm constantly told that their god is mine
Well if I end up in Hell, I'll be just fine
I'll hang out with the Atheists I know so well
The peaceful will inherit the gates of hell
While rapists and murders floated to the sky
Because they asked for forgiveness on the day that they died

God bless these United States of Australia
Do we really want to be...
God bless these United States of Australia
Anything like that country

Fast food on every corner, they take what money you have left
But if you eat from a bin, they will consider it theft
People aren't allowed to be poor, they aren't given help
So don't be shocked when they stand up and take it for themselves
Fat cat filled pockets from the tears of the silent
But the faces turn to fears when the weak become strident
So don't fucking tell me my generation's fucked
When my country is run by old bigoted cunts

God bless these United States of Australia
Do we really want to be...
God bless these United States of Australia
Anything like that country

I've become a shamed of this country, of my birth
Racism is standard, the weak mean less than the dirt
The power's in the hands of the classist scum
They pound their money hungry beats on their classist drum
Economy means more than the Earth that we live
The money we take is better than the help that we give
I've learned my life is anger, built out of habit
And if I die my last breath will be; Fuck you Tony Abbott!
