Dear America Lyrics by M.A.T. (USA)

Something’s Gotta Give

2015

[Matthew] Dear America
[Allyson]Dear America
[Matthew] Dear America
[Allyson]Dear America
[Matthew] Dear America
[Allyson]Eww yeah
[Matthew]Yeah I had a talk with
I had a talk with
I had a talk with
I had a talk with
I had a talk with
I had a talk with dear America
[Verse 1: Matthew]
I had a talk with Thomas Paine
He said you need common sense alive again
The national debt is immense
Meanwhile more money is spent
If we owe so much
Then how can we triple it on our children's expense
You see it doesn't make sense
And don't take my word when you see it first
Open up a book and do your own research
Send a soldier overseas to fight a war
When we can't even defend our own border
Dear America
[Allyson] Dear America
[Matthew] Dear America
[Allyson] Dear America
[Matthew] Dear America
[Allyson] eww yeah
[Verse 2: Matthew]
And so many people wanna talk about healthcare
But who the hell cares
If the government collapses and can't repair
You think then they going to worry about our welfare?
Yeah right
It's time to stand up it's time to unite
I'm tired of all the pointing the fingers
When neither side is completely right
Wanna take away guns to stop all the killing
But can't keep drugs out of a prison
Now if y'all could do it I'd be with it
But it's not realistic
If anything history has told me something different
The prohibition didn't work
War on drugs left an empty purse
And criminals don't obey the law
Man even presidents got they head blown off
Anybody can get killed
So live your life to fullest everyday for real
[Allyson]Dear America
Dear America
Dear America
[Matthew] Dear America
[Allyson] Dear America
[Matthew] Dear America
[Allyson] Dear America
[Matthew] Dear America
Eww Yeah
[Verse 3: Matthew]
Hmm
And we still got a really long way to go
Before you hear what I'm saying on the radio
So let's teach the children and build a nation
A whole lot better than the one we're facing
And sometimes
I feel like the older generation got to die
Before I can survive
As a man on my own cause their stuck in their ways
And I'ma be the same one day
Hearing some punk telling me to move on
Thinking that this kid is wrong
When rocking roll came out they thought it was the devil
The way Elvis shook his hips didn't really seem to settle
In the mind of the parents
And this is going to take some time that's apparent
That's why I wrote this letter to America
So you can share it even if I perish
Always try to cherish and when it comes to marriage
Leave it to the state stop all of the hate
Cause that negative energy isn't in the pearly gates
