These are the lyrics to American Jesus by Bad Religion. Its one of those songs that I've liked for a long time and I just heard it today and really paid attention to what they're saying. Interesting Stuff.

AMERICAN JESUS


I don’t need to be a global citizen, Because I’m blessed by nationality
I’m member of a growing populace, We enforce our popularity
There are things that seem to pull us under
And there are things that drag us down
But there’s a power and a vital presence, Thats lurking all around
We’ve got the american jesus, See him on the interstate
We’ve got the american jesus He helped build the President’s estate
I feel sorry for the earth’s population ’cuz so few live in the u.s.a.
At least the foreigners can copy our morality, They can visit but they cannot stay
Only precious few can garner the prosperity
It makes us walk with renewed confidence
We’ve got a place to go when we die and the architect resides right here
We’ve got the american jesus, Overwhelming millions every day
He’s the farmers barren fields, The force the army wields
The expession in the faces, Of the starving children,
The power of the man, He’s the fuel that drives the clan
He’s the motive and conscience, Of the murderer
He’s the preacher on t.v., The false sincerity
The form letter that’s written, By the big computers
He’s the nuclear bombs, And the kids with no moms
And I’m fearful that he’s inside me
