American Dream

All work, no play may have made Jack a dull boy
 But all work, no God has left Jack with a lost soul
 But he's moving on full steam
 He's chasing the American dream
 He's gonna give his family the finer things
 ♪
 Not this time son, I've no time to waste
 Maybe tomorrow, we'll have time to play
 And then he slips into his new BMW
 And drives farther and farther and farther away
 'Cause He works all day and tries to sleep at night
 He says things will get better
 Better in time
 So he works and he builds with his own two hands
 And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand
 But the wind and the rain are comin' crashing in
 Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands
 His kingdom stands
 ♪
 His American Dream is beginning to seem
 More and more like a nightmare
 With every passing day
 "Daddy, can you come to my game?"
 "Oh Baby, please don't work late"
 Another wasted weekend
 And they are slipping away
 'Cause he works all day and lies awake at night
 He tells them things will get better
 It'll just take a little more time
 So he works and he builds with his own two hands
 And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand
 But the wind and the rain are comin' crashing in
 Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands
 His kingdom stands
 ♪
 He used to say, "Whoever dies with the most toys wins"
 But if he loses his soul, what has he gained in the end?
 I'll take a shack on a rock
 Over a castle in the sand
 Now he works all day and cries alone at night
 It's not getting any better
 Looks like he's running out of time
 'Cause he worked and he built with his own two hands
 And he poured all he had in a castle made with sand
 But the wind and the rain are coming crashing in
 Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands
 His kingdom stands
