Song lyrics

Once the religious, the hunted and weary
Chasing the promise of freedom and hope
Came to this country to build a new vision
Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope
Like good Christians, some would burn the witches
Later some got slaves to gather riches

But still from near and far to seek America
They came by thousands to court the wild
And she just patiently smiled and bore a child
To be their spirit and guiding light

And once the ties with the crown had been broken
Westward in saddle and wagon it went
And 'til the railroad linked ocean to ocean
Many the lives which had come to an end
While we bullied, stole and bought our a homeland
We began the slaughter of the red man

But still from near and far to seek America
They came by thousands to court the wild
And she just patiently smiled and bore a child
To be their spirit and guiding light

The blue and grey they stomped it
They kicked it just like a dog
And when the war over
They stuffed it just like a hog

And though the past has it's share of injustice
Kind was the spirit in many a way
But it's protectors and friends have been sleeping
Now it's a monster and will not obey

(Suicide)
The spirit was freedom and justice
And it's keepers seem generous and kind
It's leaders were supposed to serve the country
But now they won't pay it no mind
'Cause the people grew fat and got lazy
And now their vote is a meaningless joke
They babble about law and order
But it's all just an echo of what they've been told
Yeah, there's a monster on the loose
It's got our heads into a noose
And it just sits there watchin'

Our cities have turned into jungles
And corruption is stranglin' the land
The police force is watching the people
And the people just can't understand
We don't know how to mind our own business
'Cause the whole worlds got to be just like us
Now we are fighting a war over there
No matter who's the winner
We can't pay the cost
'Cause there's a monster on the loose
It's got our heads into a noose
And it just sits there watching

(America)
America where are you now?
Don't you care about your sons and daughters?
Don't you know we need you now
We can't fight alone against the monster

All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will to be rightful must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal law must protect, and to violate would be oppression.

Thomas Jefferson I feel was the first true American Icon. The man was brilliant, and I don't use that term lightly. This song made it so easy for me to convey my deepest thoughts so much that placing the graphics was a breeze. The song is the history of our country in a nutshell.

I still get chills when I see it. This video was made when Bush was in and I was hoping Ron Paul would win, Though the faces have changed Ron still Rules.

Please pass the video along. It really should be seen by all.

America (USA) and probably the whole world is doomed. Sad but true. American government isn't working for americans. It's working for the Middle east - Israel. Sad puppets...

IF THIS WAS SENT TO YOUR INBOX, BEWARE- this video MAY have been posted by someone looking to draw critical & abusive comments about spamming, only to prosecute the commenters under UK Law (Communications Act 2003) for causing ‘offence’.

Unscrupulous law firms have been indulging in this particularly vicious form of trolling, even targeting non-UK citizens. Of course, ‘early settlement’ is always offered in return for an ‘administrative fee’ (up to £1,000/$2,000).

Whoever sits in the oval office, has little power.

They even fear for their life.

Do you really think RP would be allowed to function? He's one of the handful of members who are nothing more than lepers supporting the illusion there is a structure for a voting system when we have an Oligarchy comprised of corporations.

How could anyone not notice RP ignored by the press.

F'god's sake, AZ is being PRIVATIZED, expect that to spread to all states people.

THERE IS NO ROOM FOR US ANYMORE. Please get how we have only ourselves to look to, the evidence is all around us.

There is too much money involved in both parties. The Reps and Dems are both bought and if you want to be president then you better conform. I hate to say it but the corporations & special interest groups think this is their country and will put up some billions of $ to keep it that way. Its not government for the people by the people, it is people enslaved for the government and the government's stake holders. The injustices that made us fight for independence are small to what we face now.

@wdb54imagine Hello my fellow Americans.

.

watch tv? stick to MSNBC it's the sole survivor of as accurate a form of journalism (left) as we can hope for, ....for now.

.

it is precarious too, bc it's parent company was recently sold to an extreme r-wing wingnut.

.

I hope most of us are smarter than the fox snooze-us-into-confused-compla­cency channel.

@bgroovy2 "Obama, they are all onboard with this "hope and change" bs! "
