The American Ruse - MC5[00:00:00]

Written by：MC5[00:00:01]

They told you in school about freedom[00:00:10]

But when you try to be free they never let ya[00:00:12]

They said it's easy nothing to it[00:00:15]

And now the army's out to get ya[00:00:18]

Sixty nine America in terminal stasis[00:00:21]

The air's so thick it's like drowning in molasses[00:00:23]

I'm sick and tired of paying these dues[00:00:26]

And I'm finally getting hip to the American ruse[00:00:29]

I learned to say the pledge of allegiance[00:00:37]

Before they beat me bloody down at the station[00:00:40]

They haven't got a word out of me since[00:00:43]

I got a billion years probation[00:00:45]

Sixty nine America in terminal stasis[00:00:48]

The air's so thick it's like drowning in molasses[00:00:51]

I'm sick and tired of paying these dues[00:00:54]

And I'm sick to my guts of the American ruse[00:00:56]

Phony stars oh no crummy cars oh no[00:01:05]

Cheap guitars oh no Joe's primitive bar nah[00:01:10]

Rock'em back Sonic[00:01:17]

The way they pull you over it's suspicious[00:01:44]

Yeah for something that just ain't your fault[00:01:46]

If you complain they're gonna get vicious[00:01:49]

Kick in the teeth and charge you with assault[00:01:51]

Yeah but I can see the chickens coming home to roost[00:01:54]

Young people everywhere are gonna cook their goose[00:01:57]

Lots of kids are working to get rid of these blues[00:02:00]

Cause everybody's sick of the American ruse[00:02:03]

Well well well take a look around[00:02:09]

Well well well take a look around[00:02:11]

Well well well take a look around[00:02:14]

Well well well take a look around[00:02:17]

Well well well take a look around[00:02:20]
