Welcome to the home of the free,
The land of the divided
Welcome to a land filled with greed,
The one-percent who have the need
To silence dissent, keep those below them
Complacent in a system that favors money
Over ethics and honesty
Welcome to a nation full of deceit,
Land of misinformation and misery.
Welcome to a nation where the wheels
spin propaganda for a leader.
Welcome to a nation where a leader
Forgoes democracy and takes a page
From a communist and dictator,
Crowning himself King of the ages.
Who needs dignity when you've got vanity?
Who needs honesty when you're a liar?
Welcome to a nation where truth doesn't matter
Welcome to a country on fire.
Divided, we stand, divided we fall.
America the Beautiful, America the tall.
Who will be there to save us all?

Welcome to the home of the free,
The land of the divided
Welcome to a land filled with greed,
The one-percent who have the need
To silence dissent, keep those below them
Complacent in a system that favors money
Over ethics and honesty
Welcome to a nation full of deceit,
Land of misinformation and misery.
Welcome to a nation where the wheels
spin propaganda for a leader.
Welcome to a nation where a leader
Forgoes democracy and takes a page
From a communist and dictator,
Crowning himself King of the ages.
Who needs dignity when you've got vanity?
Who needs honesty when you're a liar?
Welcome to a nation where truth doesn't matter
Welcome to a country on fire.
Divided, we stand, divided we fall.
America the Beautiful, America the tall.
Who will be there to save us all?
