I had a dream last night
And in my dream I had a knife
I stuck the knife into your neck
Then I pulled it out and I stabbed you again
You staggered, screaming
Bloody and unbelieving
That anyone would ever punish you
For all of the traitorous things that you do
It was a very American dream
Then it was a different scene
You were alive in the beginning
I was four horses
As you were quartered
Then I was a machine
I was a rotating blade
Coming to saw you in half
As you lay strapped down on a table on your back
Through the bone
And out the other side
That was my dream last night
It was a very American dream
