    I never thought about the universe, it made me feel small
    Never thought about the problems of this planet at all
    Global warming, radio-active sites
    Imperialistic wrongs and animal rights!
    No!
    Why think of all the bad things when life is so good?
    Why help with an 'am' when there's always a 'could'?
    Let the whales worry about the poisons in the sea
    Outside of California, it's foreign policy
    I don't want changes, I have no reactions
    Your dilemmas are my distractions
    That's no way to go, Franco Un-American
    No way to go, Franco Un-American
    No way to go, Franco Un-American
    No way to go, Franco, Franco Un-American
    I never looked around, never second-guessed
    Then I read some Howard Zinn, now I'm always depressed
    And now I can't sleep from years of apathy
    All because I read a little Noam Chomsky
    I'm eating vegetation, 'cause of fast food nation
    I'm wearing uncomfortable shoes 'cause of globalization
    I'm watching Michael Moore expose the awful truth
    I'm listening to Public Enemy and Reagan Youth
    I see no world peace 'cause of zealous armed forces
    I eat no breath-mints 'cause their from de-hoofed horses
    Now I can't believe; what an absolute failure
    The president's laughing 'cause he voted for Nader
    That's no way to go, Franco Un-American
    No way to go, Franco Un-American
    No way to go, Franco Un-American
    Where can we go, Franco Un-American
    I want to move north and be a Canadian
    Or hang down low with the nice Australians
    I don't want to be another "I-don't-care"-ican
    What are we gonna do Franco, Franco Un-American

    Left or right, all US leaders oppress middle east for oil & israel
    Instead of troops, drones kill hundreds of innocents
    Only death toll that comes close is the suicide toll of returned US veterans who get virtually no help & are left scarred inside & out, homeless, addicted & worse
    Having said that, great track, loved it then love it now

    Us french canadian when we came to this country . The industrial revolution. The orginal mill workers spread out during the civil war from the cotton shortage. This an influx of millions of french canadians poured into the northeast and bit of the north of wisconsin and minnesota upper mich.
    We continued our tra tradition of cultural survival that we had practice under our English overlords and French Canadia whilst we developed very insular small net communities known as little Canada's that were basically condensed areas of French Canadians some of them were extremely horrendous in nature and some of the fringes of New England but some of them spawned artistic hero's such as jack Kerouac of lowell mass. By the point he came lowell was a destitute post industrial mill city. He then traveled the country documenting the real american condition as many folk traveled before him have also done. See woodie guthrie's unedited this land is my land.
    The french canadians invented the credit union because they couldn't get credit from english-owned Banks the term franco-american comes from the fact that out of all the immigrants the French Canadians were American first and foremost before they came to America so they felt like true Americans to the term Franco American comes from to describe these French influenced Americans as opposed to you know the regular old wasp
    ,when you first came here we were seen as others or aliens for a lack of a simulation and are prettyness to practice the Catholic religion and thus giving the Catholic Church a foothold in the Americas that the origins of the Americans in the 18 1900s despise this and despised us and I love the times like I said the employers of French Canadians and Mills would house them in utter squalor in the outskirts of New England out of you know the limelight the privy to the masses

      NOFX said Michael Moore is credible and exposes the truth. I stared crying laughing when I heard this in 2003. Michael Moore praises the Castro regime, and is de facto capitalist since his he profits from his little propaganda films. NOFX acts like they know what they're talking about but the truth is that they just play straight into the system. Despicable.

    Never thought about the problems of this planet at all
    Global warming, radio-active sites
    Imperialistic wrongs and animal rights!
    No!
    Why think all the bad things when life is so good?
    Why help with an 'am' when there's always a 'could'?
    Let the whales worry about the poisons in the sea
    Outside of California, it's foreign policy
    I don't want changes
    I've no reactions
    Your dilemmas are my distractions
    That's no way to go
    Franco Un-American
    No way to go, Franco Un-American
    No way to go, Franco Un-American
    No way to go, Franco
    Franco Un-American
    I never looked around
    Never second-guessed
    Then I read some Howard Zinn, now I'm always depressed
    And now I can't sleep from years of apathy
    All because I read a little Noam Chomsky
    I'm eating vegetation cause of fast food nation
    I'm wearing uncomfortable shoes cause of globalization
    I'm watching Michael Moore expose the awful truth
    I'm listening to Public Enemy and Reagan Youth
    I see no world peace cause of zealous armed forces
    I eat no breath-mints cause their from de-hoofed horses
    Now I can't believe what an absolute failure
    The president's laughing cause he voted for Nader
    That's no way to go
    Franco Un-American
    No way to go, Franco Un-American
    No way to go, Franco Un-American
    Where can we go, Franco Un-American
    I want to move north and be a Canadian
    Or hang down low with the nice Australians
    Cause I don't want to be another "I-don't-care"-ican
    What are we gonna do, Franco
