Become America Songtext
von The Call

When will America become America?
When will America become America?
When will the home we love
Mean freedom for everyone?
When will America become America?

When will the killing stop?
When the last child has dropped?
How long must mothers′ tears
Rain down on streets of fear?
When will the home we love
Mean justice for everyone?
When will America become America?

When will America become America?
When will America become America?
When will the home we love
Mean freedom for everyone?
When will America become America?


When will the struggling poor
Walk with heads held high once more?
Children playing on a haunted street
Where dogs and vultures eat
A politician weaves a spell
A promise spoken from the mouth of hell
When will America become America?

When will America become America?
When will America become America?
When will the home we love
Mean freedom for everyone?
When will America become America?

With the very lives they gave
Soldiers are young and brave
Shame for the world to see
A mystery to you and me
Angels will keep their watch
Heaven will count the cost
When will America become America?

When will America become America?
When will America become America?
When will the home we love
Mean freedom for everyone?
When will America become America?
