[Verse 1]
It's less hard than it should be to find a dead guy dressed up as Batman
His penis out, with a magazine
And a Go-Gurt hanging out of his mouth but you know
[Chorus 1]
We say "hey now, this is America"
We got some time to kill, and we need a thrill
So we die doing the dumbest of shit, here we go
[Verse 2]
We got people hanging out at abandoned malls
Trying to get the dead people to talk to 'em
With a little rigged up Bluetooth thing
With a feather kicking out of the back and you know
[Chorus 2]
They got Go-Gurts, 'cause this is America
We got some time to kill, and we need a thrill
So we die doing the dumbest of shit, here we go
[Verse 3]
We got a guy going sixty on a six-foot unicycle
Gunning down a road that is made of gravel
And he's barreling towards a hanging bag
That is full of flaming Go-Gurts and now he is dead
[Outro]
I said, "Hey now, this is America"
