lyrics
You can hear it coming down
You can feel it all around
You can hear the sound
Coming up from the ground
We can elect another clown
But we don't let it bring us down
Our footfalls shake the ground
You can hear the sounds
The sounds of America
You can feel it everywhere
The stagnant air of despair
The sorrowful wail
Of a monkey or a bear
You can walk away with me
To the origin of thee
We'll never come down
We'll keep making the sounds
The sounds of America
You can hear the fools go mad
For they know that they've been had
How do you tell your dad
His cancer is bad
You can hear how they have failed
You can hear the mask tear
Smiles abound
We'll keep making the sounds
The sounds of America
