Proud to Be an American The Tubes

(Spooner)

I'm proud
To be an American
I'm proud
Of the groovy things we've done
There's television, free religion, Rock 'n' roll, Standard Oil
Times Square, Jimmy Darren, Corey Wells, and Smokey Bear
Price reduction, reconstruction, Peace Corps, and lots more
Culture that we got to lend

I'm proud
To be an American
And I'm proud
Had a great time bein' one
There's your school and my school and both of us in high school
Surfboards, cigarettes, homework, Southern Comfort
Boy's dean was real mean
Made us keep our locker's clean
Failed nearly every class
Ditchin' was a gas

I'm proud
To be a young American
I'm proud, just think about it
All the far out things that we've begun
There's revolution, constitution, land, sea, and air pollution
Cold wars, hot wars, gas wars, and confrontutions
Constipation, consternation, open hearted palpatations
Muscular Dystrophy
