Lyrics American Dream - Rich Aucoin

Willy, don't let the world weigh you down
You're just a man and you're spinning around
They said you could make it if you try
But turns out they lied, and now they're bleeding you dry

Please, try again
Is what they say because they need you to play
So please, play again
Though you can never win, know you can never win
And that's the heart of the scheme

I don't wanna lose my life to the American dream

Jay, you almost made it in
You're just a man and it's too far to swim
They said you could have it if you succeed
You have more than you want and nothing you need

Please, try again
Is what they say because they need you to play
So please, play again
Though you can never win, know you can never win
And that's the heart of the scheme

I don't wanna lose my life to the American dream

Lennie and George, you had a taste of the life
You're just some men and it cut like a knife
They said you could have it if you choose
But one of you was always to lose

So enjoy your red, white, and green
I don't wanna lose my life to the American dream
