America (You’re Freaking Me Out) Lyrics by The Menzingers

Hello Exile

2019

[Verse 1]
On the lonely end of history
Swingin' and swayin' to the murder mystery
Rhyme and reason fled the crime scene
Of new penthouses next to tents in the streets
[Verse 2]
Oh, how do I steer my early thirties
Before I shipwreck, before I'm forty?
Oh, ain't it a shame what we choose to ignore?
What kind of monsters did our parents vote for?
[Pre-Chorus]
Lately, I feel like I'm in puppet Vichy France
Tryin' to teach the devil how to dance
[Chorus]
To these sing-alongs of siren songs
To oohs, to ahhs, to big applause
With all of my anger, I scream and shout
America, I love ya, but you're freakin' me out
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh, oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh, oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh
[Verse 3]
Drivin' through the Bible Belt
Billboards claimin' how Jesus felt
Oh, how'd his words confuse themselves?
With cranks for Christians in powerful positions
[Pre-Chorus]
I've always felt like all their pomp and circumstance
Is just cover for the devil to dance
[Chorus]
To these sing-alongs of siren songs
To oohs, to ahhs, to big applause
With all of my anger, I scream and shout
America, I love ya, but you're freakin' me out
[Bridge]
America, you're freakin' me out
With all my anger, I shout
Why can't you recognize
Truth from clever lies?
[Chorus]
To these sing-alongs of siren songs
To oohs, to ahhs, to big applause
With all of my anger, I scream and shout
America, I love ya, but you're freakin' me out
To these sing-alongs of siren songs
To oohs, to ahhs, to big applause
With all of my anger, I scream and shout
America, I love ya, but you're freakin' me out
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh, oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh, oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh, oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh, oh-ooh-woah-oh-oh
