Dancing kings and jellybeans and freaks out in the streets
Twirling 'round like candy floss and beefsteak jerky meats
Grabbing sludge with grubby hands and glistening with sweat
Screaming high and swinging low and posting on the internet
Well we want this and we want that and we want genocide
And if we do not get it all we won't be satisfied
My country tis of thee
Hummingbirds and useless words and ducks lined in a row
Shoot 'em down quick one, two, three
They're rotten as Rousseau
Well we are fat with a hipster hat and we are getting fatter
We stare down at our interweb and eat up all the chatter
Well there is no guts and there is no will
And there is no freakin' glory
We are babes lost in the woods like an old-time bedtime story
Tangled knots and rusted pots and anchors in the mud
Bombs are crashing in our homes but they are but a dud
Plastic bags on TV news deliver with their hands
They swirl around like a hurricane and no one understands
Well we are glad as we can be we got just what we need
We are Generation Fucked
And we grow just like a weed
