Strange American Dream

Hey baby
 Hey baby
 Maybe I was born sick
 In a castle on top of the world
 Maybe the whole gang is better off
 Makin' money out fightin' a war
 Terminal motion
 Keeps spinnin' me around
 Temporary devotion
 With a picket fence and a rowdy crowd
 Well I was sure that everything was goin' fine
 Until you took the shot and killed me with your mind
 I'm a man and I wanna be honest
 I'm better than I used to be
 But now the whole world is wired up
 On the red, white, and the green
 And all the boys and girls are growin' up
 In a strange American dream
 Temperature risin'
 And the water tastes like blood
 Look at all of the sensitive people
 Screamin' from their yards, oh
 And my neighbor down the street
 With the pretty face and the rubber jaw
 Has plenty there to eat
 But she don't share nothin' at all
 Well I was sure that everything was goin' fine
 Until you took the shot and killed me with your mind
 I'm a man and I wanna be honest
 I'm better than I used to be
 But now the whole world is wired up
 On the red, white, and the green
 And all the boys and girls are growin' up
 In a strange American dream
 This ain't nothin' like
 What I thought it'd be like
 When I was a little kid
 I drew dinosaurs fightin' wars
 Behind the doors I reinforced with
 Red, yellow and green
 From all the cameras in front of us
 I couldn't tell you what it is I see
 So I close my eyes and realize
 That I'm alive deep inside this
 Strange American dream
 La la la la, la la la, la, la la, la la
 La, la la la
 La la la la la, la la la la la la la
 But now the whole world is wired up
 On the red, white, and the green
 And all the boys and girls, yeah they're growin' up
 In a strange
 In a strange
 In a strange American dream
