History Lesson #1 Lyrics - Crashdog

We built this country on "democracy" 

We stole this land through hypocricy 

We found ourselves some liberation 

And we hid our guilt on the reservation 

What we want we must possess 

It's time for us to take your address 

You cannot stop our progress 

Send your complaints to Congress 

We declared all men's equality 

While the blacks still lived in slavery 

They fought in wars for our cause 

But still couldn't vote by our laws 

We change the rule when we decide 

Our moral values are cast aside 

Your oppression is justified 

Cause we're the ones who preside 

Now it's 1994 

Nothing's changed much from before 

We break promises left and right 

What we can't buy, we take by might 

Some would say we victimize 

But we just try to capitalize 

Your only hope we'll monopolize 

So we can build our enterprise 

It's all in your books 

All you need to do is take a look 

If you don't know what 

Our country's done 

Here's history lesson #1
