New American Century

Welcome to the New American Century
Yeah welcome to the New American Century
I wanna be just like my President
I wanna make more money than I can spend
I wanna build more bombs than I can send
to somewhere I can't even spell the name of

Welcome to the New American Century
Yeah welcome to the New American Century
I wanna big big mac and double fries
I wanna wave my American standards high
I wanna fly my flag across your sky

Welcome to the New American Century
Yeah welcome to the New American Century
Come all you Black and Hispanic boys
we'll keep you poor so you got no choice
but to join the army in your prime
and fight for Uncle Sam, and die...
