What America do I live in if not this one?
What do they think they are exporting? it's not me
This land is my land where ever I stand
Only that money belongs to thee!
The riot of history, our history of riots
And the life you've strangled out of the word 'free'
Liberty ain't an airport in Newark and towers don't need to be free
You drop the 'e' in equality
Something nice in a high end catalog
Never sent to the likes of me
This land is my land where ever I stand
What god has made let no man lease, let no man lease!
Some of the phrases in that rhetoric you're stuttering
Must mean the opposite to you than it does to me
Yeah being scared and confused is a part of freedom
Is that what you wanted me to get out of that speech?
Is there another America than the one I live in
Then why do I get their TV?
This land is my land and you should understand that when you say 'we'
Can't you see? Or can you?
Can you see?
That the America you live in is not this one
And you don't protect or represent me
This land is my land but from where I stand outside the gated communities I can see
There is another America than the one I live in
And what they're exporting is me
This land is my land, where ever I stand
See you in the funny papers from the penitentiary!
