American Jesus Lyrics - Simple Plan

I don't need to be a global citizen 

Because I'm blessed by nationality 

I'm member of a growing populace 

We enforce our popularity 

There are things that seem to pull us under 

And there are things that drag us down 

But there's a power and a vital presence 

That's lurking all around 

We've got the American Jesus 

See him on the interstate 

We've got the American Jesus 

He helped build the president's estate 

I feel sorry for the earth's population 

'Cause so few live in the U.S.A. 

At least the foreigners can copy our morality 

They can visit but they cannot stay 

Only precious few can garner the prosperity 

It makes us walk with renewed confidence 

We've got a place to go when we die 

And the architect resides right here 

We've got the American Jesus 

Fostering their shame on faith 

We've got the American Jesus 

Overwhelming millions every day 

He's the farmers barren fields 

The force the army wields 

The expression in the faces of the starving millions 

The power of the man he's the fuel that drives the clan 

He's the motive and conscience of the murderer 

He's the preacher on t.v., the false sincerity 

The form letter that's written by the big computers 

The nuclear bombs and the kids with no moms 

And I'm fearful that he's inside me 

We've got the American Jesus 

See him on the interstate 

We've got the American Jesus 

Exercising his authority 

We've got the American Jesus 

Fostering their shame on faith 

We've got the American Jesus 

Overwhelming millions every day, eah 

One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. 

One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. 

One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. 

One nation, under god. One nation, under god.
