"Americanization"
The Lyrics
The Eastern world, it is explodin'
Violence flarin', bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill, but not for votin'
You don't believe in war, but what's that gun you're totin'
And even the Tikri River has bodies floatin'
But you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don't believe
This is
Americanization
Don't you understand what I'm tryin' to say?
Can't you feel the despair I'm feelin' today?
If the button is pushed, there's no runnin' away
There'll be no way to live if the draft's what they give
Take a look around you, kid
It's bound to scare you, kid
And you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don't believe
This is
Americanization
Yeah, my blood's so mad, feels like coagulatin'
I'm sitting here just contemplatin'
You can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation
The government prefers annihilation
And marches alone can't stop registration
When human respect is disintegratin'
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'
And you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don't believe
This is
Americanization
Think of all the hate there is overseas
Then take a look around in Washington, DC
You may leave your homeland for 5 days in space
But when you return, your flag's been replaced
The chatter of the guns, the pride and disgrace
You can blow out your brains, but don't leave a trace
Hate your next-door neighbor, but don't forget to say grace
And you tell me over and over and over and over again, my friend
You don't believe
This is
Americanization
Mm, no no, you don't believe
This is
Americanization
