lyrics

This American Dream

Same old song
what's really going on
we barely get along
but we carry on
we carry on, we carry on.

We the people
we pay no mind
we carry on
like we got the time
we got a story we can't unwind
we got a story of a different kind

but it's the same old song
what's really going on
we barely get along
but we carry on
we carry on, we carry on.

We're overworked
and we're underpayed
we're overmedicated
but entertained
don't know my neighbors name
but I know what he makes
I know what car he drives
I know what he takes

Cause it's the same old song
what's really going on
we barely get along
but we carry on
we carry on, we carry on.

This American dream
right in front of your T.V. Screen
Yeah, you know what I mean
This American dream
It's a story you can't believe
worthy of your reality T.V.

This American dream
right in front of your T.V. Screen
Yeah, you know what I mean
This American dream
It's a story you can't believe
something your eyes haven't yet ever seen

But it's the same old song...
