MKTO - American Dream Lyrics
Mmm...We broke down trying to leave townDriving down the roads of changeWe were born to run, Cali here we come[?] from nowhere USASay goodbye to white picket fencesSay hello to palm trees and BenzesThey say you have to fall to have it all(Mmm...)Yeah, well we don't want two kids and a wifeI don't want a job I just want a lifeThey say the underdogs riseIn my mind you'll fallThis ain't the same summer song that you used to know‘Cuz Jack left Diane thirty years agoThe world is spinning too fast for you and meSo tell me whatever happened to the American dreamI know a girl I met her last nightShe was fresh off the planeShe whispered in my ear,“Baby come near I'll do anything to make a nameâ€Baby, take my hand follow me ‘cuzI don't wanna hurt you but he doesI just wanna give you some real advice(Listen baby, mmm)Look, never take candy from a strangerAnd keep your eyes open for danger‘Cuz this right here is the twisted paradiseThis ain't the same summer song that you used to know‘Cuz Jack left Diane thirty years agoThe world is spinning too fast for you and meSo tell me whatever happened to the American dreamNa na na~This ain't the same summer song that you used to know‘Cuz Jack left Diane thirty years agoThe world is spinning too fast for you and meSo tell me whatever happened to the American dreamThis ain't the same summer song that you used to knowSo baby, let's live and die before we're getting oldYou know that nothing is the way it used to beSo tell me whatever happened to the American dreamNa na na~
