Lyrics for 51st State

Look outta your windows, watch the skies Read all the instructions with bright blue eyes We're W.A.S.P.'s, yeah, proud American sons We know how to clean our teeth And how to strip down a gun 'Cause we're the 51st state of America Yeah, we're the 51st state of America This is the 51st state of America Our star-spangled Union Jack flutters so proud Over the dancin' heads of the merry patriotic crowd Yeah, tip your hat to the Yankee conquerors We got no reds under the bed with guns under our pillows We're the 51st state of America Yeah, we're the 51st state of America This is the 51st state of America Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho Here in the land of opportunities Hah! I watch us revel in our liberty Well, you can say what you like but it doesn't change anything 'Cause the corridors of power, they're an ocean away We're the 51st state of America Yeah, we're the 51st state of America I alike the States of America This is the 51st state of America Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho
