you can't sleep, armies invade your dreams (no time today) you can't speak things are as black as they seem (all fade away)no work, nothing to do anyway (no time today) you've got no life and you live in a box and afraid (all fade away) you take what you feel what you lie and steal, you're american, oh so american, you break what you thrill, what you tame and you kill, you're american, oh so american, your move, twenty four seven, your groove(no time today) you've got no way, and nowhere's the price that you pay (all fade away)
