The Rebirth Of VenusWake Up To America lyrics by Ben Lee
America is a big country
America is a big idea
I once got a fortune cookie that said
"America is a place where people can invent themselves"
So when I found myself making out with two girls at once
At the Lincoln memorial in Washington D.C.
I knew what that fortune cookie said
It'd been beautiful, strange, and true
Wake up to America
Up to America
Feel your broken heart
Beating like a drum
Wake up to America
Up to America
Even in the dark
Shine for everyone
America, I've been reading your history
And a lot of it sounds like empire building
America, the world needs a foreign policy of compassion
I still believe that somewhere underneath all this mess
America is a good country
Cause I guess I believe that people in their hearts are essentially good
They just get greedy and they get scared
Wake up to America
Up to America
Feel your broken heart
Beating like a drum
Wake up to America
Up to America
Even in the dark
Shine for everyone
America, it must get so lonely being you sometimes
Up all night, no one to share the long drives with
Don't worry, we won't let you fall asleep at the wheel
Wake up to America
Up to America
Feel your broken heart
Beating like a drum
Wake up to America
Up to America
Even in the dark
Shine for everyone
Wake up to America
Up to America
Up to America
Up to America
Up to America
Up to America
America
Wake up to America
Up to America
