America the Great

American the greatYou think you're so fineBut look at your unemployment rateI think there's a signLook at the last electionWhat a horrible selection Hillary, we thought you'd prevailBut Just look at your emailNow don't even get me started with trumpCan somebody just put that thing on his head in the dump? But the real issue at handOf how we still see our skin color as an issue andOf how we don't see the family whocame to the "land of the free" they thought they knewHomeland security came byA daughter, a kiss, "daddy, goodbye"America , I thought you were so greatWhen actually we are a nation of hate
