American Dream

American Dream
source- http://www.azlyrics.com/s/switchfoot.html

When success is equated with excess The ambition for excess wrecks us As top of the mind becomes the bottom line When success is equated with excess

If your time ain't been nothing for money I start to feel really bad for you, honey Maybe honey, put your money where your mouth's been running If your time ain't been nothing but money

I want out of this machine It doesn't feel like freedom

This ain't my American dream I want to live and die for bigger things I'm tired of fighting for just me This ain't my American dream

When success is equated with excess When we're fighting for the Beamer, the Lexus As the heart and soul breath in the company goals Where success is equated with excess

'Cause baby's always talkin' 'bout a ring And talk has always been the cheapest thing Is it true would you do what I want you to If I show up with the right amount of bling?

Like a puppet on a monetary string Maybe we've been caught singing Red, white, blue, and green But that ain't my America, That ain't my American dream
