American Jesus (Live) Lyrics by Simple Plan

0

[Verse]
I don't need to be a global citizen
Because I'm blessed by nationality
I'm a member of a growing populace
We enforced our popularity
There are things that seem to pull us under and
And there are things that drag us down
But there's a power and a vital presence
That's lurking all around
We've got the American Jesus
See him on the interstate
We've got the American Jesus
He helped build the president's estate
I feel sorry for the earth's population
Because so few live in the U.S.A
At least the foreigners can copy our morality
They can visit but they cannot stay
Only precious few can garner the prosperity
And it makes us walk with confidence
We've got a place to go when we die
And the architect resides right here
We've got the American Jesus
Bolstering national plan
We've got the American Jesus
Overwhelming millions everyday
He's the farmer barren fields
The force the army wields
The expressions in the faces
Of the starving millions
The power of the man
The fuel that drives the clan
The motive and the conscience
Of the murderer
He's the preacher on TV
The false sincerity
The form letter that written by
The big computers
He's the nuclear bombs
And the kids with no moms
And I'm fearful that
He's inside me
[Bridge]
We've got the American Jesus
See him on the interstate
We've got the American Jesus
Exercising his authority
We've got the American Jesus
Bolstering national plan
We've got the American Jesus
Overwhelming millions everyday, Yeah!
[Outro]
One nation under God [8x]
