Kinda makes me wonder about his "Born in the USA" stage.....maybe it was just a phase he was going through.

That song is very derogatory to the US. It grates on me that it is played during every 4th of July fireworks show.

That's because to most people the lyrics are:

Mumble, mumble, mumble, mumble, mumble, mumble.

BORN IN THE USA!!

Mumble, mumble, mumble, mumble, mumble, mumble.

BORN IN THE USA!!

What specifically is derogatory to the US in that song?
Honestly curious to know exactly what you mean.

Seems like he's just commenting on the futility of the Vietnam War, the fall of the industrial economy, and our failure to take care of our vets.

Most Americans would probably agree with that stuff.
