Dying in America

Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Once upon a high The streets were gold and blue was in the sky riders gone Never could belong [Chorus 1] Maybe you still can dream Sleep through screams While we're dying in America [Verse 2] Once upon a child The carnival would stop and stay a while you were gone Everything went wrong [Chorus 2] Too soon, cartoon Dying in America Dying in America [Bridge] In places where aces outnumber the queens Jack is afraid of tomorrow Colors are changing to red, white and green As we all fall down [Instrumental Break] [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Once upon a hate They told us they could fix it if we'd wait for awhile Killing you with smiles [Chorus 1] Maybe you still can dream Sleep through screams While we're dying in America Dying in America [Outro] (Spoken Word) Sex, sex, sex Even bigger, even better Don't lose out, be a winner Save more, save time and save now One hundred thirty per cent American people Would like to be like everyone else
