Pacified Lyrics

Pacified lyrics

you've been you've been Americanized 

you've been you've been Americanized 

you've been you've been American 

you've been you've been Americanized 

open up your eyes you've been Americanized 

open up your eyes 



a difference 

what we're claiming to make 

as we strive to be amused 

we sit back in all our comforts as 

the world wonders where've we been 

we're held captive by U and VHF 

well we're prisoners of our own device 

doing what's right in our own eyes we forsake the truth to cling to a lie 



you've been you've been Americanized 

you've been you've been Americanized 

you've been you've been American 

you've been you've been Americanized 

open up your eyes you've been Americanized 

open up your eyes 



laziness plagues our people 

diseased we sit on our hands 

hedonism crept in like a snake 

but we failed to recognize it 

i say it's a foothold he's got on us 

or maybe one we've given to him 

well its time to take it back 

i said its time time time to take it back 



you've been you've been Americanized 

you've been you've been Americanized 

you've been you've been American 

you've been you've been Americanized 

open up your eyes you've been Americanized 

open up your eyes 



our homes become our tombs 

our beds become cocoons 

this is not a song of condemnation 

this is a call to arms 

the lion lies in wait to devour us 

we must be ready 

the lion lies in wait to devour us 

this is a call to arms 



you've been you've been Americanized 

you've been you've been Americanized 

you've been you've been American 

you've been you've been Americanized 

open up your eyes you've been Americanized 

open up your eyes you've been pacified 

open up your eyes (open up your eyes) you've been Americanized

open up your eyes (open up your eyes) you've been Americanized
