The Request Paroles

If you believe in what you think you believe in
Think for a little while
You're not the only one on planet earth
Don't think you're always right.
Every little man has his own little right
To live in his own little land
Every little man who fights to defend that
Is admired, be he wrong or right.
You simply cannot strip a whole nation
Stark naked of its pride
America, America
Don't start the Last World War.

When it happens in Pakistan,
You simply seem to shut your eyes,
When rights are violated in China,
You have them on your favored list.
Unless politically/commercially hit,
You seem to keep pretty still,
Somehow you seem to nurture the notion that
The world spins on your goodwill.
You simply cannot strip a whole nation
Stark naked of its pride
America, America
Don't start the Last World War
