American Dream

[Intro]
Dream...!

[Verse 1]
Talk you into my life, it's up to you
I don't need no interviews
Of your mind, I see through you
I'll be your analyst and your doctor too
I'll be your patient, if I can get to you
You can call me a rock star
It seems to fit with you

[Chorus]
All-American dream, I'm not as bad as I seem
While all America screams
Everywhere I go, I've got to put on a show
I can't take it no more
All-American dream full of material things
Sometimes it makes you scream
Every time I fly, it's either do or die
For the American pie

[Verse 2]
A fantasy is what I am, is what I am (a fantasy)
No way, I won't go
I'm wishing that you could be just a fan-to-see
(Fast nights) Fast nights, fast girls
They're tickled pink, but their minds are blue away
Backstage autographs
I never get surprised
When the girls start to laugh

[Chorus]
All-American dream, I'm not as bad as I seem
While all America screams (we wanna rock!)
Everywhere I go, I've got to put on a show
I can't take it no more (we wanna scream!)
All-American dream full of material things
Sometimes it makes you scream (we wanna rock!)
Every time I fly, it's either do or die
For the American pie (we wanna scream!)

[Bridge]
Oh, yeah... it's the run-around in my Chevrolet...
Impala, s'up mama
And then I look behind me, and I see the girls on the bicycle
Riding me down, they just wanna ride
Then all of a sudden, I see the police behind me
Beside me, they're everywhere
And they say, uh... "What you doin' with them girls?"
And I say, "I'm just your friendly neighborhood rockstar"
And I'm trying to [?]
And it's time for me to go, you know
And remember: just because I wave my hand, don't mean I'm gone
And just because I say goodbye, it don't mean "so long"
Let me play my guitar, 'cause I gotta get outta here
Your all-American dream... is gone!

[Chorus]
All-American dream, I'm not as bad as I seem
While all America screams (we wanna rock!)
Everywhere I go, I've got to put on a show
I can't take it no more (we wanna scream!)
(We wanna rock!)

[Outro]
Off we go, into the wild blue yonder...
