Lyrics and translation
Original
The American dream is killing me
The American dream is killing me
When it's all double-talk of conspiracy
The American dream is killing me
Send out an SOS
It's getting serious
Bulldoze your family home
Now it's a condo
We are not home
Are we not home?
Goddamn, I am so grateful
Forever faithful to
The American dream is killing me
The American dream is killing me
People on the street, unemployed and obsolete
Did you ever learn to read the ransom note?
Don't want no huddled masses
TikTok and taxes
Under the overpass
Sleeping in broken glass
We are not well
Are we not well?
Cracked up into the wild
We're pedophiles for
The American dream is killing me
The American dream is killing me
When it's all double-talk of insanity
The American dream is killing me
Say
Woah, oh, oh, oh-oh
Woah, oh, oh, oh-oh
Woah, oh, oh, oh-oh
From sea to shining sea
Whitewashed upon the beach
My country under siege
On private property
We are not home
Are we not home?
Kiss me, I'm dead inside
Who needs suicide when
The American dream is killing me
The American dream is killing me
When it's all double-talk of insanity
The American dream is killing me
