Lyrics American Dream - Rod West

If i was a nobody i'll tell you what i'd say
I would warn you from inside that i know all your pain
If i was a movie star i'd never say a word
That was not on paper and then broadcast to the world

That's life, that's life
In the American dream
Kill or be killed, and never sleep

If i was the president i'll tell you how i'd lie
Sell you a utopia then call that apple pie

That's life, that's life
In the American dream
Kill or be killed, and never sleep

They'll give you freedom but it's less than what you need
They'll package liberty and then slip in their greed
They'll sell you happiness until your fingers bleed
They'll rob you blind until you see

If i thought it could get better tell you what i'd do
Burn all my possessions and then move into the zoo

That's life, that's life
In the American dream
Kill or be killed, and never sleep
