Tote their guns
Cause they’re the ones
Who own this place
This country is theirs
Take a drag
And wave the flag
Cause it belongs
To people like them
But we all don’t live like them
Guess we’re un-American
No we all don’t live like them
Guess we’re un-American
They guzzle gas
They could care less
That the future
Depends on them, too
Forget what’s fair
Cause they’re the judge
Of anyone
Who’s different from them
But we all don’t live like them
Guess we’re un-American
No we all don’t live like them
Guess we’re un-American
We’re un-American
I guess we don’t fit in
I guess we don’t belong
Judge our way of life
‘Cause they are so far right
That they can’t see they’re wrong
We’re un-American
‘Cause we are different than
The ones who go along
In this society
If there’s no conformity,
I guess we don’t belong
