[Intro]
Let me tell you something 'bout my country
Let me tell you something 'bout my— (Uh, uh, oh)
[Verse 1]
Let me tell you something 'bout my country
Small in size but we managed to colonize
We cost the world millions of people's lives
Indonesia, South Africa to Palestine
[Refrain]
Fuck, we fucked up
Fuck, let's fuck it up
[Verse 2]
Let me tell you something about my country
She's on a path of war and destruction
Driven by imperialism as her main function
We got rich by robbery and violation
Let me tell you something about my country
We committed and still support genocide
While we deny the facts and then hide
As long as we don't have to apologize
[Pre-Chorus]
"You should be grateful
Do you realize how rich our nation is?
You should be happy, you shouldn't be hateful
That you were born on this side of the world"
Well, do you think?
[Chorus]
Let me tell you something 'bout my country
Let me tell you something 'bout my country
Let me tell you something 'bout my country
[Bridge]
Holland was guilty of apartheid in South Africa
Prince Bernard I was a Nazi and II is a slumlord
We donate weapons to Israel
And remember the Childcare Benefits Scandal?
We play a giant role in the refugee crisis
In Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria and Libya
Genocide in Srebrenica and never fully recognized
Guilty of police violence
We literally invented capitalism
Made squatting criminalized
The royal family owns more than fifty million a year
Glorifying the golden age
How deep racism is institutionalized
And we were the last to abolish slavery
[Refrain]
Fuck, fuck, fuck
Let's fuck it up (Fuck)
