I don’t need to be a global citizen
Because I’m blessed by nationality
I’m a member of a growing populace
We enforced 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
Cuz 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
Makes us walk with renewed confidence
We got a place to go when we die
And the architect resides right here
We’ve got the american jesus
Fostering national pain
We’ve got the american jesus
Overwhelming millions every day
(In God we trust)
He’s the farmer’s barren fields
The force the army wields
(because he’s one of us)
The expression in the faces
Of the starving millions
(break down, cave in)
The power of the man
The fuel that drives the clan
(we can redeem your sins)
He's the motive and the conscience
Of the murderer
(strong heart, clear minds)
He's the preacher on TV
The false sincerity
(and infinitely kind)
The form letters that written by
The big computers
(you lose, we win)
He’s the nuclear bombs
The kids with no moms
And I’m fearful that
(he is our champion!)
he's inside me
We’ve got the american jesus
See him on the interstate
(We’ve got the american jesus)
We’ve got the american jesus
Exercising his authority
We’ve got the american jesus
(We’ve got the american jesus)
Fostering national pay
We’ve got the american jesus
Overwhelming millions every day yeah
One nation under God
One nation under God
One nation under God
One nation under God
One nation under God
One nation under God
