American Jesus

I don't need to be a global citizen

'Cause I'm blessed by nationality

I'm a 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

That's 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

'Cause so few live in the USA

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 (ah)

Bolstering national faith (ah ah ah)

We've got the American Jesus

Overwhelming millions every day (ah, ah, ah, ah ah)

He's the farmers' barren fields (in God)

The force the army wields (we trust)

The expression on the faces of the starving millions (because he's one of us)

The power of the man (breakdown)

The fuel that drives the Klan (cave in)

He's the motive and the conscience of the murderer (he can redeem your sin)

He's the preacher on TV (strong heart)

The false sincerity (clear mind)

The form letter that's written by the big computers (and infinitely kind)

The nuclear bombs (you lose)

The kids with no moms (we win)

And I'm fearful that he's inside me (he is our champion)

Yeah!

We've got the American Jesus

See him on the interstate (we've got the American Jesus)

We've got the American Jesus

Exercising his authority

We've got the American Jesus

Bolstering national faith (we've got the American Jesus)

We've got the American Jesus

Overwhelming millions every day (ah ah ah)

Yeah!
