American Dream lyrics
She was a Midwestern prom queen
Got her boyfriend headed out west
They ended up in the valley
In a one room apartment, a disconnected phone, yeah
Now five years later she's single
She's got two kids and a note
And if she gets a moment to herself
She can remember how everything used to go her way
She says
Where did the time go
When everything was simple and free?
I want to know what happened
Somebody woke me before I could have my American dream
Yeah, yeah, yeah
For twenty years he worked corporate
He planned to early retire
His CEO, he stole a billion dollars
Now he's working at Denny's hoping for a raise
He thinks
Where did the time go
When everything was simple and free?
I want to know what happened
Somebody woke me before I could have my American dream
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm a little bit rebel, I'm a bit patriot
I can see they're both sides of the coin
But still it gets a bit rough an' everything is screwed up
Guess it'
