Didn't wake up dead or in jail
Some out-of-town boys been givin' us hell
I got some bad news
I woke up missin' you

My friends are all degenerates, they're all I got
Generational story, I'm droppin' the plot
I heard the cops came
Well, cocky motherfuckers, ain't they?

Well, ICE is gonna come bust down your door
Tryin' to build a house, no one builds no more
But I got a telephone
The kids are all scared and all alone

The Boss stopped bumpin', the rock stopped rollin'
My middle finger's risin', and it won't stop showin'
Got some bad news
The fadin' of a red, white, and blue

But this land's your land
This land's mine too
Is this all true, man
Or is it just bad news?

Well, he said, she said, mirrors and smoke
The right's turned red, and the left's all woke
I got some bad news
I woke up missin' you

My friends are all degenerates, they're all I got
Every day on the news, someone else is shot
I got some bad news
The fadin' of a red, white, and blue

I served eight years just to be told
Nobody cares, and the land's all sold
I got some bad news
I woke up missin' you

But this land's your land
This land's mine too
Is this all true, man
Or is it just bad news?

Didn't wake up dead or in jail
Some out-of-town boys been givin' us hell
I got some bad news
The fadin' of a red, white, and blue
