Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I ever get really depressed
I download Tor, buy a suicide vest
Leave a dirty bomb at a Wall Street address
Gatecrash a Rothschild party and
Leave it in a mess
In a mess
Dirty mess
[Verse 2]
It started out to beacon of hope
But the dream of living quickly turned into a joke
The Indians and Mexicans were the first to feel the rope
The blade, the Gatlin', wagon trains came rattlin'
Murdered buffalo, block cattle in
Storm clouds were gatherin'
[Verse 3]
It's how the West was won
It's how the West was won
At the point of a gun
Like they've always done
[Verse 4]
Just like everybody else
I'm in love with Kim Kardashian
She's taken over from J. Lo
As my number one
Even though I know
She's just a bum
In another timeline
I would've stared at her all day long
Without ever wanting to see her from the front
God knows I love America
[Verse 5]
It's the stigma you help to propagate
In every sense you are profligate
Even your parents ran away from home to escape you
Your best friends all hate you
I don't mean to devastate you
[Verse 6]
It's how the West was won
It's how the West was won
Head on the spike of a gun
Just like you've always done
It's no mystery
It's your history
It's what you've always done
