The Great American Progress Songtext
Get Revenge against the lies

Find the Truth, open Your Eyes



Their textbooks mask the truth

History lies make you a fool
Columbus came, see Natives killed

A holiday for the blood that spilled



Ignorance and oppression

Blacks in fields from dusk till dawn

Watchful eyes and white mans whip

Great American progress



Get Revenge against the lies

Find the Truth, open Your Eyes


The Chinese, forced to obey

Submission, abandoned ways

The Irish came, considered bums

Fend for themselves, crammed into slums



Supposed land of the free

American family tree

Supposed land of the free

Lady Liberty lied to me



See history repeat itself

It's happening over again



Get Revenge against the lies

Find the Truth open Your Eyes



The Japanese, born in this land

In '45 concentration camps

New immigrants they have no chance

Border closed, take a stand



Supposed land of the free

Lady Liberty lied to me

Supposed land of the free

That stupid bitch lied to me
