Kidnap America Lyrics

I got plan; yeah, a plot's what I got 
To help this country rise again 
All a' the haves 
Join the have-nots 
And strip our fears off while we can  
 
[Chorus; C.W. only] 
We've gotta kidnap America 
Hold it for ransom 
Put a price on our own head 
And we won't give back America 
'Til ev'ry one of us  
Start payin' up, stop playin' dead  
 
Hold up your head 
You got it up? 
Doomsday's been comin' for a hundred years 
But it's not here yet 
An' it ain't a-gonna come 
Unless we drown in our own tears  
 
[Chorus; the other singers] 
We've gotta kidnap America 
Hold it for ransom 
Put a price on our own head 
And we won't give back America 
'Til ev'ry one of us  
Start payin' up, stop playin' dead  
 
Stand up, Americans! 
We are the people! 
And the shirt's bein' stripped right off of our backs 
We've let it happen 
And we've gotta stop it 
Before the spirit of sweet Liberty cracks  
 
You guys in office! 
You better listen! 
We're sick an' tired of gettin' took 
This ain't no crap game! 
This is our future! 
So run this country by the book  
 
Pay up with courage! 
Don't die for terror 
We got the guts; we're the home of the brave 
Well the home may be crumblin' 
But not the foundation 
It's still as strong as the day it was laid  
 
[Chorus; the other singers] 
We've gotta kidnap America 
Hold it for ransom 
Put a price on our own head 
And we won't give back America 
'Til ev'ry one of us  
Start payin' up, stop playin' dead  
 
I wanna thank ya 
For your time
