Well it's true what they say
The American way
Is built on someone's tears
They alone, are the lucky ones
Take when they came
With promises made
How long — 100 thousand years so far?
Would really like to hurry things up
D'like to know, better than
History, when lies began
I saw the truth I couldn't lie
I'd take it back a thousand times
But now you've gone and thrown it all away
You are king of the world
Yet you plunder - always saying something new
Please
I can't guide them anymore
I saw (what they did)
Like to know, better than
Eyes that change when youth began
I saw the truth I couldn't lied
I'd give it back a thousand times
Armed a child, let her — there
I saw it all pretend I had
(Pretend) I cared
Not at all
