We watch movies of murder and we censor the breast

Give thanks for the murders of Chris Columbus

We kill our own and we vote for the men

The lesser of evils and us starring the role of victim



I wonder how we change if we can in this land

I wonder how many mountains we'd move if we bent together

Us priveleged Americans



We pass our revisions onto the next generation

We kneel to the Gods of corporation

We eat when we're full and we hoard all the rest

With our hands on remotes we say "Yes, We're the best"



I wonder what we change in this land, cause we can

Even with western centricity this rampant

Us ugly Americans



Tired are not my hands

But see strangers and enemies as part of me, is real.

For me this awakening Canadian



We teach our offspring for themselves, every man

We shrug shoulders and create yet another -ism

We dissuade our young from using their imagination

We avert our eyes from this our very own manifestation



I wonder what will change in this land, cause we can

I wonder how many mouths we'd fill if we band together

Us awakening Americans
