American Dream

Single-file line to say the pledge allegiance For illusionary freedom A gold star for your achievements keep you blind They'll sell you on American dreams But you have to be asleep If you wanna believe it's not a lie It's your fault you're so depressed Up your meds and do your best Suck it up and hold your breath Work 'til you're dead Punch the clock, cash the check Ooh Keep your head down and follow the rules Get a job and stay the fuck in school If that's all we gotta do Then come and talk the talk And I'll let you take a walk in bloody shoes If we're all just canon fodder Why the fuck we drinkin' water? Take your Adderall with coffee Just to spike our cortisol We're overstimulated, underpaid, and not appreciated Guess I really fuckin' made it God bless the USA Thoughts and prayers won't save us here So save your tears Ooh Keep your head down and follow the rules Get a job and stay the fuck in school If that's all we gotta do Then come and talk the talk And I'll let you take a walk in bloody shoes We did what you told us to do We took all the tests And followed all the rules Raise your hand, shut your mouth Be a man, quiet down There's no sun underground And you can't take your money with you Ooh Keep your head down and follow the rules Get a job and stay the fuck in school If that's all we gotta do Then come and talk the talk And I'll let you take a walk in bloody shoes Ooh Keep your head down and follow the rules Get a job and stay the fuck in school If that's all we gotta do Then come and talk the talk And I'll let you take a walk in bloody shoes
