[Verse 1]
E
This country’s sure got problems
A E
Corruption, crime, and drugs.
E
And though we try to fix the world
B
The world just hates our guts.
E
But for all our woes and troubles
A E
I still love the US
E
‘Cause compared to the rest of the world
B E
America sucks less
[Verse 2]
E
They call us all polluters
A E
With our Hummer SUV’s
E
But in China you can taste the air
B
And it tastes like iPhone 3’s
E
You may hate our politicians
A E
And protest what they say
E
But think about how much it sucks
B E
To be Russian and gay
[Verse 3]
E
Our congress can’t do anything
A E
Our senators are goons
E
But at least they were elected
B
And their name’s not Kim Jong–un
E
Japan makes better cars than us
A E
Games and cartoon shows
E
But I saw The Cove on Netflix huh
B E
And that was pretty fucked up, bros
[Chorus]
A E B E
America, I love you, out of necessity
A E
You’re not too hot and not too cold
B
And mostly not diseased
A E
Compared to the alternative
B C#m
You’re probably the best
A E
‘Cause the whole world sucks
B E
But America sure sucks less
[Verse 4]
E
Our economy is tanking
A E
But we’re not as fucked as Greece
E
Our fast food is disgusting
B
But Italians eat maggot cheese
E
The NSA is spying on
A E
Our emails and phone calls
E
But good luck finding WiFi
B E
In some village in Nepal
[Verse 5]
E
Brazil is full of riots
A E
Australia’s full of snakes
E
Mexico’s got cartels
B
And their water makes you shit for days
E
Dubai is just Las Vegas
A E
Without alcohol or fun
E
And Africa’s in a post-colonial tailspin
B E
Of genocide and oppression
[Chorus 2]
A E
America, I love you
B E
Though you’re run by old white men
A
Republicans are assholes
B
But at least they’re not the French
A E
We’d probably get a solid B
B C#m
If they gave the world a test
A E
‘Cause the whole world blows
B B
But America sure blows less
[Chorus 3]
B F#
America, I love you
C# F#
For your lack of murder squads (lack of murder squads)
B
Your working indoor plumbing
C#
And your mostly valid laws
B F#
In a world of mostly shit
C# D#m
America stinks the best
[Outro]
B F#
‘Cause the whole world sucks
C# F#
But America sure sucks less
