Usa Today Lyrics

Turn on your t.v. now my son 



in north hollywood I see the guns are blazing 



well you can't believe it 



but you'd best believe it boy 



this is your u.s.a. today 



turn up the radio now my son 



a car got jacked in compton, news at 11 



just another day in the modern world 



but I still love this land, o.k.? 



well you can't believe it 



but you'd best believe it boy 



this is your u.s.a. today 



take a look and you might see too much reality 



you'll cut your mind along the way 



on the pieces of a broken of a broken world today 



see the pretty news announcer, son? 



she looks so good with stories of decay and destruction 



smiling like it was all a video game 



and every anchor looks the same 



well you can't believe it 



but you'd best believe it 



this is your u.s.a. today 



look too hard then you will see too much reality 



you'll cut your mind along the way 



on the pieces of a broken world today 



see the wars so far from here 



brought into my room so crystal clear 



words and images like these have got me on my knees 



turn up your t.v. now my son 



cause there's nowhere left to hide, nowhere left to run 



well you can't believe it 



but you'd best believe it 



this is the u.s.a. today
