Lyrics

Episode version

The Simpsons:

Oh beautiful for spacious skies

For amber waves of grain.

Homer:

Fifty stars and thirteen stripes.

Marge:

Okay, kids, show off your pipes.

Bart:

Americans are brave and loyal.

So come on, jerks, give us your oil.

Lisa:

My card here says "ACLU,"

Now look what I'm going to do.

Homer:

To love our country is no chore.

Album version

Homer:

Now people have been accusing this family of not loving our country. But you can't spell USA without "US," eh?

The Simpsons:

Oh beautiful for spacious skies

For amber waves of grain.

Homer:

Fifty stars and thirteen stripes.

Marge:

Okay, kids, show off your pipes.

Bart:

Americans are brave and loyal.

So come on, jerks, give us your oil.

Lisa:

My card here says "ACLU,"

Now look what I'm going to do.

Homer:

To love our country is no chore.

Marge:

Wait right here for our encore!

[inmates applaud]

Homer:

We mean it, don't move!

[inmates laugh]

Prisoner:

They've escaped!

Homer:

Okay, kids, show off your pipes.

Bart:

Dad, why are you still singing that stupid song?

Homer:

Because, if they catch us, we might have to do it again! And next time, I want it tight!
