This song was originally recorded in 1997 on “Stolen Shoes” and was remade in 1998 for “Pornucopia” but was dropped because it was too long. This song is nearly six minutes, which is pretty self-indulgent for a pop-punk song. Here are the lyrics, loosely based on the pledge of allegiance and “America”:
We, the people, the united waste, of thee I sing. We are wasted in a nervous daze, let napalm sting. Strife, poverty and the nappiness, pursue these things. Overcrowding our retired place, multiplying. We are the scum of the earth. We do pledge allegiance to the slag heap of our dreams. One dead nation that is overtrod, dead or dying. And to the republic which it stands on our bodies with poverty and injustice all we are dying. We are the scum of the earth.
