Lyrics

I remember when my father used to yell
Shook the drywall in the house
And whenever he came home I thought the walls were coming down
But they never really did
And goddamn this house was built so well
But I was young and couldn't tell
That I was suffering in hell
I remember when my mama used to cry
And kiss my dad goodbye
'Cause he don't work at nine to five
His job is saving lives
And when he gets home from the war
His hands are on the floor
Scrubbing shit from someone else
And saving love from a divorce
White picket fence around my yard
Two brand new cars in the garage
My father worked so goddamn hard
And God bless the USA
But now I get what my dad screamed
'Cause I'm as angry as can be
I look like him, he looks like me
I guess we're both living the American dream
What the fuck is mental health?
That's a silly fucking name for me just wanting to kill myself
I guess you're bound to get what you paid for
When you get high when you're only 12
But you really only wanted advice
And you can't tell your mom 'cause it's tough about guys
So you start telling lies
And your daddy harasses you, getting in fights
'Cause you're just mad
I guess I just needed some help
I always had to do it myself
I guess I never really said how I felt
Fuck!
White picket fence around my yard
Two brand new cars in the garage
My father worked so goddamn hard
And god bless the USA
But now I get what my dad screamed
'Cause I'm as angry as can be
I look like him, he looks like me
I guess we're both living the American dream
USA (hey, hey, hey)
USA (hey, hey, hey)
