Don't get me wrong. I love America. It truly is the greatest nation in the world. But there are some there who just seem so ignorant and unaware of anything but the United States of America. Even then, they just go along with what everyone else thinks. I lived in a tiny town for awhile called Jackson, Missouri. It can be found at the lower portion of the state. Nice lil town, but it sure wasn't for me. Lots of nice people, especially my in-laws, but I am a big city boy, through and through. Anyways, I escaped the rednecks there, and I'll forever think of them when I hear Green Day's American Idiot.

American Idiot - Green Day

Don't wanna be an American idiot.
Don't want a nation under the new media.
And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mindfuck America.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
Well that's enough to argue.

Well maybe I'm the faggot, America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along in the age of paranoia.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
Well that's enough to argue.

Don't wanna be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.
Information nation of hysteria.
It's going out to idiot America.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
Well that's enough to argue.
