America[00:00:00]

America I've given you all and now I'm nothing[00:00:04]

America two dollars and twenty seven cents January 17 1956[00:00:08]

I can't stand my own mind[00:00:14]

America when will we end the human war[00:00:17]

Go f**k yourself with your atom bomb[00:00:20]

I don't feel good don't bother me[00:00:22]

I won't write my poem till I'm in my right mind[00:00:24]

America when will you be angelic[00:00:28]

When will you take off your clothes[00:00:30]

When will you look at yourself through the grave[00:00:32]

When will you be worthy of your million Trotskyites[00:00:35]

America why are your libraries full of tears[00:00:38]

America when will you send your eggs to India[00:00:41]

I'm sick of your insane demands[00:00:44]

When can I go into the supermarke[00:00:46]

And buy what I need with my good looks[00:00:48]

America after all it is you[00:00:50]

And I who are perfect not the next world[00:00:51]

Your machinery is too much for me[00:00:55]

You made me want to be a saint[00:00:57]

There must be some other way to settle this argument[00:00:59]

Burroughs is in Tangiers[00:01:01]

I don't think he'll come back it's sinister[00:01:03]

Are you being sinister[00:01:05]

Or is this some form of practical joke[00:01:06]

I'm trying to come to the point[00:01:09]

I refuse to give up my obsession[00:01:11]

America stop pushing[00:01:13]

I know what I'm doing[00:01:15]

America the plum blossoms are falling[00:01:16]

I haven't read the newspapers for months[00:01:19]

Everyday somebody goes on trial for murder[00:01:21]

America I feel sentimental about the Wobblies[00:01:23]

America I used to be a communist[00:01:26]

When I was a kid[00:01:27]

I'm not sorry[00:01:28]

I smoke m*******a every chance I get[00:01:30]

I sit in my house for days on end[00:01:32]

And stare at the roses in the closet[00:01:34]

When I go to Chinatown I get drunk[00:01:36]

And never get laid[00:01:38]

My mind is made up there's going to be trouble[00:01:39]

You should have seen me reading Marx[00:01:42]

I have mystical visions and cosmic vibrations[00:01:43]

America I still haven't told you[00:01:47]

What you did to Uncle Max[00:01:48]

After he came over from Russia[00:01:49]

I'm addressing you[00:01:51]

Are you going to let your emotional life[00:01:53]

Be run by Time Magazine[00:01:55]

I'm obsessed by Time Magazine[00:01:57]

I read it every week[00:01:59]

Its cover stares at me every time[00:02:01]

I slink past the corner candystore[00:02:03]

I read it in the basement[00:02:05]

Of the Berkeley Public Library[00:02:06]

It's always telling me about responsibility[00:02:08]

Businessmen are serious[00:02:11]

Movie producers are serious[00:02:13]

Everybody's serious but me[00:02:14]

It occurs to me that I am America[00:02:17]

I am talking to myself again[00:02:20]

Asia is rising against me[00:02:22]

I haven't got a Chinaman's chance[00:02:24]

I'd better consider my national resources[00:02:26]

My national resources consist of[00:02:29]

Two joints of marijuana[00:02:31]

Millions of genitals[00:02:33]

An unpublishable private literature that goes 1400mph[00:02:35]

And twenty five thousand mental institutions[00:02:39]

I say nothing about my prisons[00:02:42]

Nor the millions of underprivileged[00:02:44]

Who live in my flowerpots[00:02:45]

Under the light of five hundred suns[00:02:47]

I have ready abolished the whorehouses of France[00:02:50]

Tangiers is the next to go[00:02:52]

My ambition is to be President despite[00:02:55]

The fact that I'm a Catholic[00:02:57]

America how can I write a holy litany[00:02:59]

In your silly mood[00:03:02]

I will continue like Henry Ford[00:03:04]

My strophes are as individual[00:03:06]

As his automobiles[00:03:08]

More so they're all different sexes[00:03:09]

America I will sell you strophes 2500 apiece[00:03:11]

500 dollars down on your old strophe[00:03:15]

America free Tom Mooney[00:03:17]

America save the Spanish Loyalists[00:03:19]

America Sacco and Vanzetti must not die[00:03:22]

I am the Scottsboro Boys[00:03:25]

America when I was seven mama[00:03:28]

Took me to Communist cell meetings[00:03:29]

They sold us garbanzos[00:03:31]

A handful per ticket[00:03:32]

A ticket costs a nickel[00:03:33]

And the speeches were free[00:03:34]

Everybody was angelic[00:03:35]

And sentimental about the workers[00:03:36]

It was all so sincere you have no idea[00:03:38]

What a good thing the party was in 1835[00:03:39]

Scott Nearing was a grand old man[00:03:42]

A real mensch[00:03:43]

Mother Bloor made me cry[00:03:44]

I once saw Israel Amter playing[00:03:46]

Everybody must have been a spy[00:03:48]

America you don't really want to go to war[00:03:50]

America it's them bad Russians[00:03:53]

Them Russians them Russians[00:03:56]

And them Chinamen[00:03:57]

And them Russians[00:03:57]

The Russia wants to eat us alive[00:04:00]

The Russia's power mad[00:04:02]

She wants to take our cars from out our garages[00:04:04]

Her wants to grab Chicago[00:04:06]

Her needs a Red Readers' Digestses[00:04:08]

Her wants our auto plants in Siberia[00:04:12]

Him big bureaucracy running our fillingstations[00:04:14]

That no good Ugh[00:04:17]

Him make Indian learn read[00:04:19]

Him need big black niggers ah[00:04:21]

Her make us all work sixteen hours a day Help[00:04:24]

America this is quite serious[00:04:28]

America this is the impression[00:04:30]

I get from looking in a television set[00:04:31]

America is this correct[00:04:33]

I'd better get right down to the job[00:04:35]

It's true I don't want to join the Army[00:04:37]

Or turn lathes in precision parts factories[00:04:39]

I'm nearsighted and psychopathic anyway[00:04:41]

America I'm putting my queer shoulder to the wheel[00:04:44]

America - Allen Ginsberg[00:04:47]
