lyrics

Watch the TV to relax, make your body slip through cracks
If you want to be a millionaire
Well, wash your hands before you eat, regulate breath and heartbeat
Filter unclean air

Knowing you’re in control, lose your grip on heart and soul

Don’t go out alone at night, brush teeth ’til you’re pearly white
Make sure to reserve life in advance
Well, have it your way, Mickey D—have the same Big Mac times three
Don’t believe in chance

Calculate how to live—clean syringe and a sedative
You’re an American
You’re an American
And you rule the world—yes, you rule the world

Kids believe in closet ghosts, parents in white picket posts
Both believe in God because they’re told
Well, earn an “A” for “affluence,” standardize your preference
Buy before it’s sold

Chase what you don’t have yet—site-seeing on the internet
You’re an American
You’re an American
And you rule the world—yes, you rule the world

Don’t eat fat or else you’re dead, three clicks to adjust your bed
Learn how to predict just what you’ll get
Well, lather, rinse, repeat your day, bandage death and pain away
But you can’t predict regret

Everything makes sense—rationale is your defense
You’re an American
You’re an American
And you rule the world—yes, you rule the world, don’t you?
You’re an American
You’re an American
And you play by the rules—yes, you play by the rules
