I got plan; yeah, a plots 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]
Weve gotta kidnap america
Hold it for ransom
Put a price on our own head
And we wont give back america
til evry one of us
Start payin up, stop playin dead
Hold up your head
You got it up?
Doomsdays been comin for a hundred years
But its not here yet
An it aint a-gonna come
Unless we drown in our own tears
[chorus; the other singers]
Weve gotta kidnap america
Hold it for ransom
Put a price on our own head
And we wont give back america
til evry one of us
Start payin up, stop playin dead
Stand up, americans!
We are the people!
And the shirts bein stripped right off of our backs
Weve let it happen
And weve gotta stop it
Before the spirit of sweet liberty cracks
You guys in office!
You better listen!
Were sick an tired of gettin took
This aint no crap game!
This is our future!
So run this country by the book
Pay up with courage!
Dont die for terror
We got the guts; were the home of the brave
Well the home may be crumblin
But not the foundation
Its still as strong as the day it was laid
[chorus; the other singers]
Weve gotta kidnap america
Hold it for ransom
Put a price on our own head
And we wont give back america
til evry one of us
Start payin up, stop playin dead
I wanna thank ya
For your time
