Feeling like a trophy that The old man's been passing around Just another suit back ?? >From a old time college degree And when I walked by I heard 'em Saying he was something to see Well now don't you know that I'm the American Son Living out the old man's fantasy of being number one Daddy use to tell me, son you never kiss ass I'm the last of the American Son's And its such a such a gasp Its like a shot of ......... The way the conversation grew And everybody was telling me something That I already, already knew Well I might be dumb But it didn't take that long For me to get out of that room and bills And when I ran into the streets The crowd was yelling he's such a such a gasp (chorus) Well now kiss ass oh, yeah Ready to get on with that fool ??? You know that Eddy's ?? in danger of ?? Of a self indulgent fool To mesmerize himself into thinking That he is just to cool for school Well you know that its fun to carry a gun And shoot down what you never could be And when the dealer calls And has got you by the balls You tell him that ya, you tell that ya had it from me (Chorus) And its a, its a, its a, its a, its a, Its such a, its such a, its such a gasp I'm the last of the American Son's (repeat 12 times
