Small Town America
Protesters loot and riot
In the name of peace and quiet
Welcome to small town America everybody
Why don't you come and stay?
Tanks roll down the street
As people beg for food to eat
Welcome to small town America everybody
Why don't you come and stay?
Tear gas fills the air
Bodies lay everywhere
Welcome to small town America everybody
Why don't you come and stay?
Innocent people dying
Uncle Sam keeps crying
Welcome to small town America everybody
Why don't you come and stay?
Lady Liberty passes out
The Eagle decides to bail out
Welcome to small town America everybody
Why don't you come and stay?
America has gone to Hell
Politicians say "Oh well"
Welcome to small town America everybody
Why don't you come and stay?
America is burning
Why can't we stop the hurting?
Welcome to small town America everybody
Why don't you come and stay?
Freedom dies
As a nation cries
Welcome to small town America everybody
Why don't you come and stay?
