Lyrics
American Dream
it?s all right
smoking don?t hurt no more
a magazine I read
and the news team said they knew for sure
t-t-take it easy
they said the G-men caught their boy
and that everything was gonna be fine
so I can get to sleep tonight
imagining Life as a magazine?
American Dream in color on my TV
American Dream don?t you nightmare me
American Dream home of the very best
American Dream you?re starin? me to death
and I?m not as high as I wanna be
livin? the American Dream
it?s okay
to crash your Ford, they found
?cause the PR man said
?we got another plan this time around?
we don?t like it
running from a real-to-reel
all society is on TV
except you and me?still on the street
I wanna kick it over and take the heat
American Dream in color on my TV
American Dream don?t you nightmare me
American Dream home of the very best
American Dream YOU?RE STARIN? ME TO DEATH!!!!
and I?m not as high as I wanna be
livin? the American Dream
and we?re not as high as we?re oughta be
livin? the American Dream
no, we?re not as high as we?re
gonna be
livin? the American Dream
livin? the American Dream
livin? the American Dream
