Better Than Ezra - American Dream Lyrics

Send "American Dream" ringtone to your cell

She was a midwestern prom queen

Got her boyfriend headed out west

They ended up in the valley

In a one room apartment a disconnected phone yeah

Now five years later she's single

She's got two kids and a note

And if she gets a moment to herself

She can remember how everything used to go her way

She says

Where did the time go

When everything was simple and free?

I want to know what happened

Somebody woke me before i could have my american dream

Yeah yeah yeah

For twenty years he worked corporate

He planned to early retire

His ceo he stole a billion dollars

Now he's working at denny's hoping for a raise

He thinks

Where did the time go

When everything was simple and free?

I want to know what happened

Somebody woke me before i could have my american dream

Yeah yeah yeah

I'm a little bit rebel i'm a bit patriot

I can see they're both sides of the coin

But still it gets a bit rough an' everything is screwed up

Guess it'­s just the american way

Sometimes i wonder how you are

You're up in new york city with a family

I think i could have been your guy

It's just a moment in time that is slipping on away

Where did the time go

When everything was simple and free?

I want to know what happened

Somebody woke me before i could have my american dream

Where did the time go?

(my american dream)

Where did the time go?

(my american dream)

Where did the time go?

(my american dream)

Where did the time go?

(yeah yeah yeah)

She was a midwestern prom queen

Got her boyfriend headed out west
