Simple Plan lyrics - American Jesus (cover)

album: No Pads, No Helmets...Just Balls (2002)
genre:

I don't need to be a global citizen, 
'Cuz I'm blessed by nationality, 
I'm a member of a growing populace, 
We enforced our popularity 
There are things thet seem to pull us under and 
And there are things that drag us down, 
But there's a power and a vital presence 
That's lurking all around 
We've got the American Jesus 
See him on the interstate, 
We've got the American Jesus 
He helped build the president's estate 
I feel sorry for the earth's population 
'Cuz so few live in the U.S.A, 
At least the foreigners can copy our morality, 
They can visit but they cannot stay, 
Only precious few can garner the prosperity, 
And it makes us walk with confidence, 
We've got a place to go when we die 
And the architect resides right here 
We've got the American Jesus 
Bolstering national plan 
We've got the American Jesus 
Overwhelming millions everyday 

He's the farmer barren fields, 
The force the army wields, 
The expressions in the faces 
Of the starving childrens, 
The power of the man. 
The fuel that drives the clan, 
The motive and the conscience 
Of the murderer 
He's the preacher on TV, 
The false sincerity, 
The form letter that written by 
The big computers, 
He's the nuclear bombs, 
And the kids with no moms 
And I'm fearful that 
He's inside me. 

We've got the American Jesus 
See him on the interstate 
We've got the American Jesus 
Exercising his authority 
We've got the American Jesus 
Bolstering national plan 
We've got the American Jesus 
Overwhelming millions everyday, Yeah! 

One nation under God (8x)
