	Story Behind the Song an american take on the clash's "safe european home" Lyrics safe american home safe american home safe american home great american home and I can do no wrong I can cause explosions in your hometown cause death and destruction when I’m not around america is special we won’t be found out I can live my lifestyle regardless of the body count I can restore dictators to their former regimes torturers and murderers there’s nothing too extreme I sit in my modern dining room furniture and watch it all on tv and feel so pure safe.... I’m so confused by what I don’t hear on the news why does everyone hate us and think we’re no good for toppling an elected government I expect some gratitude burning our sacred flag while we kill you is so rude how could terror come all the way to usa I always thought we were too far away it isn’t fair that I should suffer from this I learn to say I’m from iceland in many languages better stay in my safe.... I can make you a case for Amnesty International say fuck-you to the UN and not be accountable I can use all the resources destroy environment I’ll just say I didn’t have evil intent safe.... Guatemala Chile Vietnam Afghanistan Nicaragua Iraq Libya and Iran Syria Egypt Indonesia and Lebanon and too many more to mention Safe... Great... Explosive... I don’t care if you’re oppressed don’t even think of voting socialist you might think we’re crazy but we’ll destroy any democracy that interferes with our interests I don’t care how oppressed you are don’t even think of voting anyone in who’ll nationalize your resources I’m a flag-burner and I don’t care there are ghosts everywhere and I can do no wrong.
