lyrics
politicians
yeah they're all the same
can't tell one from the other
that's why there's no point in voting
democracy
hypocrisy
what does this mean
land of the free
republicans, democrats
it's just a name
they may seem to want different things
in reality they'd be happy either way
democracy
hypocrisy
what does this mean
land of the free
politicians just want money
they don't care about you or me
we're all living in this country
we just call it "land of the free"
yeah we may have different views
about conspiracy, corruption
i really don't feel like arguing
just gonna have to close your ears cuz here i go
democracy
hypocrisy
what does this mean
land of the free
i stand by my accusations
though i dont support them with reason
just look at the goals of politicians
you'll see despite some differences
they're exactly the same
democracy
hypocrisy
what does this mean
land of the free
