The Lyrics

What Mr. Lee Melvin Greenwood wrote were essentially jingoistic, nationalistic lyrics betraying arrogance that said, essentially, "My country right AND wrong." My response notes and points out that this country is essentially supposed, and intended, to be under a government OF do-it-yourselfers BY do-it-yourselfers FOR do-it-yourselfers, and that the villains who have evilly elevated themselves into power by what actually amount to illegal means will not yield to any other efforts than our actively acting to destroy them all--and that means PERMANENTLY so.
Everything you have been treasuring
You are losing day by day
From within a fraud and swindler
Has been stealing it away
But do you see what's happening
Do you think it's someone else
Before you lose it all tomorrow
You should stop and ask yourself

Can you call yourself an American
When such evil rules the land
Did those men all die for nothing
Let alone a tyrant's hand
Don't you bend your knee no bend your back
To restore the American Way
What "We The People" means is me and you
We are the U S A

If you want to raise and wave the flag
Then make sure it's upside down
For the nation is in trouble
It's being driven into the ground
Don't forget that this is a country
Ruled by laws and not by men
We have to throw out all these criminals
So they can't come back again

That's the price that we pay for our liberty
We always have to watch our backs
All the dead men fought for principles
That are now under attack
So we have to wise up and resist the tide
Before it drowns us all today
Don't you kid yourself it's happening here
But we are the U S A

If we want to say we're Americans
Then that's how we must behave
For the way this evil gets destroyed
Is our justice counter-wave
Don't forget that the villains of history
Were destroyed in just that way
Unless we act now we've lost it all
We are the U S A
