New America Lyrics by Dr. Awkward

Last Gen (Part 2)

0

(Somebody run the fire alarm!)
[Verse 1:]
I think these motherfuckers scared of us, yeah, and they should too
Fuck 'em all, need a match and a short fuse
See the struggle every city that we pass through
New America, the tolerant with tattoos
We hold the power, and we just ain't know it yet
No obedience, no fear, and no respect
Question everything, question everyone, always
It's our day, get to making with the car pay
College graduates, because the lies they told us
They got rich on all these bad loans they sold us
Twenty six, forty K in the hole
With the stark realization, I won't own a home
Young radicals on rational sabbatical
Cuz we're powerful and fed up with the capital
Imagine it with the epiphany
That only when the leaders fear us will there be liberty
Let's go!
[Chorus:]
Fuck that, we should burn this shit down
I said fuck that, we should burn this shit down
I said fuck that, we should burn this shit down (shit down)
Let's start a motherfucking riot in this bitch
And fuck that, we should burn this shit down
I said fuck that, we should burn this shit down
I said fuck that, we should burn this shit down (shit down)
Let's start a motherfucking riot in this bitch!
[Verse 2:]
We're living in a thinly-veiled oligarchy
Where the rich control the leadership of either party
Where banks collapse cuz policies they started
And bankrupt the world and get a presidential pardon
Meanwhile, it falls upon the backs of all the innocent
Working for an out of date living wage minimum
Fuck this figurehead man, the real change is imminent
We have the information, we just don't know how to implement
Sitting here, waiting for the trickle-down to start soon
While the world is laughing at us like a cartoon
Bicker petty shit to pacify the masses
While the nation's wealth is silently extracted
I say fuck that, we should burn this shit down now
And all the scumbag Congressmen who let it go down
Sad that people fear the fed and not the other way around
We have to move, or we'll never see we're bound
[Chorus]
[Coda:]
Let's start a motherfucking riot in this bitch!
Let's start a motherfucking riot in this bitch!
Young America let's riot in this bitch!
Let's start a motherfucking riot in this bitch!
Young America! We are the future! And the future's mad
