American Dream - Royal Republic

You hang around like the smell of ammonia

And I’m trying to weather you out

Is this as good as you get California

Without a doubt

I get a little distressed from the pressure

I get sick about doing my best

When you get stuck in the business of pleasure

You’re put to the test

American dream

Well I can dream too

They’re gonna forget no matter what you do

American dream

I’m living it up for you

It’s like you wasting away to the border

But what if this is as good as you get

There will be time to reflect when it' s over

It’s not over yet

He’s got everything he’s ever wanted

But he’s stuck in a back limousine

Outside the windows, they line up to tore him

From living the dream

American dream

Well I can dream too

You gonna regret no matter what you do

American dream

I leave it all up to you

(oh. la la la)

Everybody wants something better

Everybody wants someting good

Your know it doesn’t get any better

In Hollywood

American dream

Well I can dream too

You gonna regret no matter what you do

And if I can dream American too

Just don’t let them tell you what you gotta do

Don’t you ever, never no way

You wanna be New York but getting stuck in LA

American dream, I give it all for you

(oh. la la la)
