My band covered this for Battle of the Bands at my high school last year... We got kicked out.
Totally worth it.

Its Truely the Land of the free
Sounds like you won to us
You win
What’s the name of your band

2020, still painfully relevant
That's the sad truth. 😥
As Ian Mackaye once said the non voter party is easily the biggest in America.
We are definitely a country plagued by apathy.
Bush was a huge backer of Obama what does that tell you??? Bush and Obama both had mainstream media backing them 100 percent. Nothing like terrorists sticking together huh with help from the muppet controlled media.
Painfully...
Sad but true
First song I ever heard by this band and I've loved them ever since.
I was named after a nofx song, thanks mom
I was named after a slav noodle dish
*w h y*
Thanks your mom
Bob, is that you?
Louise?

Still one of my favorite songs of this era. It really feels like a part of history that I was a part of, even if I was only 13 at the time.
I was the same age when I heard this and around when it came out.
Same problems, different generation. “I don’t want to be another ‘I-Dont’-care-ican” really hits hard.
Same problems, same generation.
In case you haven't noticed, those of us who were there for this twenty years ago are still here.
The song "the decline" hits harder lol
I even feel "attacked". I hate the world so much I started ignoring the news because it only resulted in me feeling bad. But that's how I become a "I-don't-care-ican". And it does give me more rest, but my 10 year old is already starting talking about world issues like modern slavery, animal rights, ... And is this the example I want to give him? So yeah. This hits hard.
@@gabe_s_videos I THOUGHT THE VERY SAME! AND NOW THAT WE'RE NO LONGER KIDS, WE ARE SUPPOSED TO MAKE SOMETHING MORE AND BETTER THAN BACK IN THE DAY. At least what we can, big or small.
@@assurdo8888 Here here
2020: These problems just as relevant as ever
2020 Music: Yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy
juvenoia yall
it's not an old song.
Yummy is just one song, you know. There are other songs that have been released in 2020 that are actually good
The system repeats thus is American Politics
Same in 2021.
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

It's amazing to me that what, 13 years later this song is still relevant. Amazingly sad that is.
+Miles Hill this has been relevant for a hundred years or more :P
+cheeaaaboiii do you guys understand what permanent revolution is?
+Miles Hill Yeah Noam Chomsky has a movie on netflix
Soon my young apprentices. soon.
+A llias it's amazing
These comments make me so happy :) I was listening to this in high school over 8 years ago and very recently I've been thinking how the hell punk rock isn't making a huge comeback with all the troubles in the country and then I see comments not even weeks old to a song so "old" ha it truly is awesome!
Same problems, different time. Song still hits like a mother.
Yup. MXPX did a pretty good cover of this a few years ago with some updated lyrics.
No yall just negative as hell
@@DadDudeyou mean mr focus on tge negatives & overhype em
@@TheRunoben Hmmmm I don't think so man. Maybe do some research.
@@harrisonwestphall2381 i did yall overhype everything, do you always only work on thinking about only negatives or dride negatives?
A Punk masterpiece, this is a fantastic, truthful and brilliant song. First time I heard it I had tears in my eyes and the hairs on my neck stood up.
Yuo first song I ever knew all the lyrics to my parents raised me with punk rock 🎸
@@happytortoisee Good parents!
yeah ok desperate liar
haven't had the good fortune of laughing so much at a youtube comment in a long time
Thanks and so long 4 the shoes, fire well
Amazing how music comes back to you sub-consciously based on external events!
BRAZIL HERE!!!! que nostalgia essa musica me traz!
This came on one of those special cd’s that had a video you could play on a pc, it was really fucking sick in 2004
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!

How about "live on Conan" version? ;)
Why just why. But nice that you took your time to do that
Thanks bro
Thank you
2022 and this is still the truth
"i don't wanna be another i don't care-ican"
I am amazed so many punk political songs fit right in as they did 10 / 20 tears ago.
you've seen nothing. italian rock songs from 50 years ago are still actual
Even farther than that time line,but I do understand whatcha saying.
No doubt. Biden is back to dropping bombs in Syria again. The boys are back in town. Long live the petro-dollar.
It’s almost like the music industry works with the Dems to influence youth movements. That’s why these bands barley screeched about war and corruption when Obama was in office. Then suddenly got self righteous when Trump showed up and now are going to go back to sleep again.
@@DPoner my response to that is the fact that The Decline came out while Bill Clinton was President.
This is my all time favorite NOFX song seriously so catchy!!
STILL RELEVANT
sher hansen war is only necessary when other people attacks you and you're country
@@plantman5126 LOL
I have a feeling this song is going to get a lot more popular soon...
well... how was the election?
Lollll wronggg
Idk but i know i get weird looks whwn i show up to work blasting this out of my explorer and those who tell me to "turn my shit down" i just laugh and keep on keepin on
2 years later. Nah
Fail
This is one of those that had a huge impact on me in my teens. Years later I would eventually decide to go back to school and pursue political science.... what I discovered was that NOFX was right in that Norm Chomsky and other political scientists and philosophers will keep you up at night.
My two year olds favorite song..hope for the future yet..
With each day that goes by this song has more and more meaning
I cannot comprehend how this video doesn't have millions of views.
Well it has near 2 million views as of this comment, guess things have changed. NOFX is getting a bit of resurgence seems like, given... you know. I haven't heard these songs since I was in like middle school, but they popped in my head the past few months. Bet that's going on en masse.
@@kc2094 Time Flies
@@jimmyskeletons7403 yup it's about talking about the problems of the world and solving them and so many other things
Back to the future...
YEAH BUDD! MAGA, FRANCO UNAMERICAN!!!@
Except worse
I Put This In My U.S History Project. I Was Only 4 When The Song Came Out. I Remember Seeing Them At Warped Tour of 03 and Being Like The Only Kid There. My Parents Are Awesome
omg dude why do you type like that
TheDeadpresident33 'cause he's an asshole.
What was the project about
NinjaGamer2003 The Great Depression
+A1D3N98 LOL must've been funny as hell
This has to be one of the greatest songs I've ever heard.
wow i havent seen this since i popped the cd in to my old comp
Nofx pra sempre
Such a very straightforward song. I love it!
Still holds up, I feel like this music video deserves an HD remake
Respect!
My friend's band covered NOFX's "Idiots Are Taking Over", they were kicked out because a dean said "bashing religion was detrimental to a free society", something along those bullshit lines.
Lol sounds like a hypocrite if I've ever seen it "you have all the rights in the world but we don't want you using them if it offends people" I say fuck them and anyone who thinks like them cheers to your buddy for trying to make the world open their eyes for a little bit
Yet, criticizing islam will get you arrested in the UK.
did you learn your mistake yet?
@@Joseph-cp6du wow that's awesome guess I'm moving
What if your religion uses this song as a hymn or the lyrics as a prayer? Church of NOFX
No one cares, But, when I was around 15. This music video, and Rise Against's Ready To Fall video shattered my perception of the world, nothing's changed
I like this band..i feeling this song..good job..i from malaysia..
Highschool flashbacks... skating.. smoking weed.. awesome!
2021 and still cant find music that makes me feel like this did when it 1st came out!!!
In quarentine i remember old songs
Remembering when this came out and how true it was,but also how true it is now as well
One of the best NoFx songs and I saw them play it live last week. So fucking good.
noam chomsky definitely listens to nofx
I think we're all headed the same direction, no matter what. 2020 and we still find relevancy in this song
I love your channel
omg xD I love the description box xD
I met someone. And because my name is Franco. They told me to check this out. I like it :)
This song is the reason I started reading Noam Chomsky in 2004
The relevance is immensely real now
I can't even sing this song without getting so teary and sad. But it's so good! It still rings so true in my ears. It's like I listened to Howard Zen :)
"I wanna move north and be a Canadian."
Yeah, Mike. Come up here. I'm sure you'll love Harper.
TheLoafHasLanded Trudeau is way better now lol
Trudeau fucking sucks.
@Pikachu political pikachu... quite a sight...
@@gabrielrichard5873 TRUDEAU FUCKED CANADA I WAANNA MOVE OUTH AND BE AN I DONT CAREICAN
@@joshualopes4458 FUCK TRUDEAU FUCK U
Man, this song brings me back to middle school. I remember steering a lot of classroom discussions down dark political roads, because this album inspired me to speak out.
Haha, I remember using The Irrationality of Rationality for a project in 9th grade, was definitely trying to radicalize my classmates
omg one of my fav songs
This song always feels relevant.
This is the first song I ever knew all the words to my parents raised me right 🎸
Is there a version which isn't cut off? (I mean the video)
th-cam.com/video/B9V5gsGdABc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LlBJ9MpmGctqvc6m
there’s a few on youtube but this one i think has the best sound
The bush graphic hits hard af
This song will always be relevant
How old is this song?
Has ANYTHING changed?
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
peace M
American Imperialism: friend of lobby's and bilderberg men, the worst cancer of all
"Left or Right"
The only parties in America are the centrists (democrats) and the right (republicans).
And now a big bunch of americans have nothing prepared for retirenment, health care is a mess in there, the president is an idiot and global warming is going worse and worse. I think this is the time for revolution guys.
markbatch yeah nothing has changed. Trumps ruling America and the shitstain that we call boris Jonson (who kinda looks like trump without the orange complexion) is the prime minister of the uk. If WW3 is gonna happen it’s gonna be in the next 20 years
Left or right? How the fuck is a wall street bailout left wing?
Agreed. Accept responsibility and was it something I done?
wonderfull
Hey fat Michael. This album aged well better than I'd ever imagine. got it day 1. good work
Best NOFX song to me!
Have you not listened to the decline?
Suddenly this song has become accurate again... you did it again America.
Would've been just as accurate under Clinton.
Trey Jenkins Nah
yeah
Trey Jenkins true
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.
This song introduced me into punkrock. I remember having this musicvideo on my computer because the internet was to bad to stream a video :D :D german stoneage connection..
🎸
never seen the music vid for this, kinda cool.
Thanks for accidently writing a song about my political coming of age before it happened... And using my commonly used name in doing so; Are you guys wizards?
Kinda wish they would fix the cropping issue.
Right?! How can this be the "official video" when so obviously the top and bottom is cropped :-(
th-cam.com/video/B9V5gsGdABc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LlBJ9MpmGctqvc6m uncropped version
Why does the black screen with fading lyrics part always put a lump in my throat so much
Middle school memories...good times.
The only good thing about Chrump is that all the punk bands i used to love will have lots of new material and reasons to tour.
🔥🔥🔥🔥 Punk
Such a powerful song...
more relevant than ever!
Still love it. When I listen to it now I'm like to was George so bad, in comparison to Trump?
Can't really compare the two.
Trump has done an excellent job. The brainwashing bias bs is a huge issue, lefts on power trips
Not even close
Domesrically? No. Trump is the worst in history for that. Foreign policy? Much worse.
Trina Manning I love how so many MAGAts discover bands like NOFX and Anti-Flag and go to TH-cam videos and ITunes reviews of their music to spread your bullshit. Idiots like you are exactly why these bands exist. Go back to listening to Toby Keith and his propaganda music that deliberately ignores the truth.
fat mike for president!!!!
agreed
Alexander Kundert He's a big ol poser. So yah he has a chance.
Courtney Love for Vice Pres and you can count me in!
he would say so much things that are funny but he will also be high on coke and drunk lol
Cocaine on prescription!
Love it! Now I'm awake🙂
Perfect music * *-* *
Sooo now it's like this only times fifty?
well considering trump is against the neocon wars 4 israel jews, not really applicable anymore.
no not really because trump is against our current government set up
That's not what i was commenting on. The policies of Trump and his government don't matter; I was just saying once again a large segment of the US population finds itself anxious and uncomfortable if not afraid and outraged under the current regime.
jetsilveravenger yeah because people listen to the news which never gives the full story and constantly twists it
Fair point.
this quality lol, it's like it's 2006
It's still good tho
Hi, I'm Colombian, I love this song and I can't fully understand the song and its references, could someone help me understand by giving your opinion on the song (?)
And it’s funny with this song I’m Australian but quarter Canadian and it says it in tho show I should’ve chosen this for my class playlist

WARNING:
Political comments below
Read at your own risk
+Joe M but it's fucking hilarious
+Sophia Segundo I agree I think people are funny
Yeah be careful you might learn something and become a good person
***** indeed lmao any political conversation has the potential to turn into a powder keg :)
I love reading 20 year old trust fund commies telling me how Marxism and authoritarian government is true freedom. 😂😂
hoof tacular? what is it and where can i read more about this theory? and whats exactly the porblem about?
So no one is talking about how this sounds exactly like Quart in Session (by NOFX btw)
The president's laughing because you wrote in Harambe...
I dont think i ever heard a bad nofx song
the only bad one is its my job to make punk rock elite imo.
Ive been listening to this song since i was like 12
C'mon Fat Wreck Chords, it's 360p and cut off in the top? Give us the better one :p
Australia: pretty sure they would say "fuck off we're full"
According to all the bumper stickers I see on the back of trucks I think you're right.
also maybe read this ? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_contribution_to_the_2003_invasion_of_Iraq
Remember when we all thought George W. was the worst thing ever? …I miss those days lol/ 😭
Remember when right after that Obama (Oh Bomb Us!) actually ran out of missiles and bombs bc they used so many so frequently? I think every leader has sucked a big one bc they are ALL in bed with some of the 7 richest companies in the world. Mostly pharmaceutical and manufacturers. Raytheon, Pfizer, etc. Scum my friends. As McKenna said "We are led by the least among us."
Seems to that this song fits perfectly to the US in 2021/2022
Heard this playing in Spencer’s the other day and had to google it
Wish I went vegan when I heard this at 14
My name is Franco..
your name is dotozoto
Anyone have the uncropped version of the video?
love itttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
Remember when we knew Bush was a fascist. After Trump so many think he’s a centrist.
I genuinely cant believe people think Trump is worse than Bush are you people that fucking stupid?
@@obamascock2169 they are that stupid
@@obamascock2169 are you fucking stupid? Oh wait yes you are considering the trump voter IQ is insanely low
@@Thomas-ok9ot Lol nice bro baa baa like the fucking sad little sheep you are
I'd be surprised if trump voters liked this song they wouldn't be smart enough to find it anyway 🤣
