My blood flows like the Detroit River
And my veins are the highway systems
And all the cars that populate them
They’re all the stolen medication.

There’s something in my eye
There’s something deep down in the water
Like some terrible, prophetic crime
You know he’ll never do time.

Everyone in Michigan’s a sinner
And they’re having heart attacks for dinner
A discount in the microwave
Gas guzzlin’ superstore slaves.

Hang yourself with the shackles of boredom
You weak chaos children
Will you do the Citizen Dance for me because

I’ve got an American Spirit,
I’ve got an American heart
Will you do the Citizen Dance for me?
You do the Citizen Dance right now.
