Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hip, hip, hip hooray they say You've got it made Hip, hip, hip hooray, hooray Yeah, the world is a stage Where you can act out loud and rattle the cage And remove any doubt that you're enraged Like a fool, I guess, at the end of the day You might be woke but not awake [Pre-Chorus] Pray if you need it Beg if you want it Scream if you're for it Devastation Pray if you need it Beg if you want it Scream if you hate it Desperation, the wrong information [Chorus] Pray for your family and cry yourself to sleep Pledge your allegiance to the flag under your feet Is this apocalypse now? Who let the animals out? Hip hip hooray, say something shocking Who doesn't love a parade with gasoline and grenades? Don't be afraid, it's just America burning [Verse 2] Hip, hip, hip hooray they say You've got it made Your theory might be critical but who's in charge? If victimhood is currency, then you won't starve [Pre-Chorus] Pray if you need it Beg if you want it Scream if you're for it Devastation Pray if you need it Beg if you want it Scream if you hate it Desperation, the wrong information [Chorus] Pray for your family and cry yourself to sleep Pledge your allegiance to the flag under your feet Is this apocalypse now? Who let the animals out? Hip hip hooray, say something shocking Who doesn't love a parade with gasoline and grenades? Don't be afraid, it's just America burning [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Pray for your sanity and cry yourself to sleep Pledge your allegiance to the flag under your feet Is this apocalypse now? Who let the animals out? Hip hip hooray, say something shocking Who doesn't love a parade with gasoline and grenades? Don't be afraid, it's just America burning
