Got up this morning the news was insane
Can't tune it out, lord I'm praying in vain
Sick dying cause the law ain't trying
Got grandmamas marching like it's '68, ohhh
While the hungry standing in line, they don't hear them sigh
Closing borders telling refugees no
Need jobs, but can't just build a crazy wall
Police searching neighbours hiding in fear
Paid taxes didn't know they weren't welcome here
Headlines, blowing my mind
It's time, call the higher spirits
Tell me what the hell's going on, praying
Whats going on? It's like a god damn circus show here
A-merica
What the hell's going on?
Dada dada, dada dada, dada dada
Russia's feeding all the new I hear
Fake news, real lies they don't really care
Police shooting like a carnival game
Hit a black bullseye and you won't get blamed
Start drillin' over sacred land
If the earth burns don't matter who gets slammed
Presidential where do we begin
When a little boy knows more about governing woah
Headlines, blowing my mind, it's time
Call the higher spirits
Tell me what the hell's going on, praying
What's going on? It's like a god damn circus show here
A-merica
What the hell's going on?
Dada dada, dada dada, dada dada
Took 10 years to get the troops back home
If uncle Sam pays why not have another go
A.G uses law to stoke hate
Someone tell the man that it's not '58
Presidentials now a family tree
Fire the FBI and get away scot free
Hold on
What the hell's going?
What's going on?
Tell me what the hell's going on, here
A-merica
What the hell's going on?
What the hell's going on
A-merica
A-merica
What the hell's going on?
Can't tune it out, lord I'm praying in vain
Sick dying cause the law ain't trying
Got grandmamas marching like it's '68, ohhh

Closing borders telling refugees no
Need jobs, but can't just build a crazy wall

A-merica
What the hell's going on?
