American Dream

The Parlor Mob

The times are changing and there's nowhere to run
 Now will answer to the things that were done
 In the night, we'll know just who to send
 The dogs are howling from the edge of the rain
 Where someone said they had the right to complain
 So they'll beg, or they'll burn, or they'll band

 How that everything that glitters is gold
 Down in the middle where we're bought or
 we're sold
 Give me what I need not what I owe
 The place I live is just a hole in the a wall
 As for possession, I keep nothing at all
 I woke up sick from my American dream 

 That's enough, not for us
 Our hearts are racing, we don't know who to trust
 That's enough, not for us
 Our hearts are racing, we don't know who to trust
 Not my American dream

 The birds are flying and the kids are in jail
 While I'm here waiting for my ship to sail
 In the north, we'll be just as we were
 The cars are screaming and the street
 lights explode
 If I was you, I'd stay the hell of the road
 If your time to you is not your course

 Oh my goodness, Oh my woman in white
 My eyes are fixed beyond the ghost in the right
 I don't need the stars I know their name
 I'm feeling nervous with no way to relax
 I guess I find it hard to face the facts
 I fell down drunk with my American dream
