I want to be your miracle
We’d live the dream, luxurious
And when we’re free, we’ll become Americans
It’ll be a miracle
You can hear them ringing all their bells in hell
Greedy politicians promising the world to everyone
You should be afraid, when there’s not enough to sell
These god damn rats, will fuck over anyone
I want to be the rising morning son
Illuminate your souls with blood and phosphorus
And when you bleed, you’ll become an American
It will be a miracle
You can hear them singing all the way to hell
Patriotic Jesus subjugate and beat the weaker ones
You should be afraid, when there’s not enough to sell
These fuckin kids will steal just about anything
.for gold, god and glory
I want to be your miracle
We’d live the dream, luxurious
And when we’re free, we’ll become Americans
It’ll be a miracle
