Better Than Ezra - American Dream lyrics

Your rating:



















She was a midwestern prom queen

Got her boyfriend headed out West

They ended up in the valley

In a one room apartment

A disconnected phone

Yeah



Now five years later she's single

She's got two kids and a note

And if she gets a moment to herself

She can remember how everything used 

To go her way

She says



Where did the time go

When everything was simple and free?

I want to know what happened

Somebody woke me before I could

Have my American Dream



For twenty years he worked corporate

He planned to early retire

His CEO he stole a billion dollars

Now he's working at Denny's

Hoping for a raise

He thinks



Where did the time go

When everything was simple and free?

I want to know what happened

Somebody woke me before I could

Have my American Dream



Yeah, yeah, yeah



I'm a little bit rebel

I'm a bit patriot

I can see they're both sides of the coin

But still it gets a bit rough

Everything is screwed up

I guess it­s just the American way



Sometimes I wonder how you are

You're up in New York City with a family

I think I could have been your guy

It's just a moment in time that is slipping on away



Where did the time go

When everything was simple and free?

I want to know what happened

Somebody woke me before I could have 

My American Dream

My American Dream



Yeah, yeah, yeah



She was a midwestern prom queen

Got her boyfriend headed out West
