Amerika Lyrics by Doc Backer

15,16 (Pop Songs for the General Populace)

2015

We look better in the moonlight
Our flaws hide out of sight
Wearing old battered blue jeans
‘Hind the glow of LED screens

We’re the dark side of the American dream
That’s bursting at the seams
We’re the dark side of the American dream
That’s bursting at the seams

Generation x with a dose of sex
Bored ‘less it comes with a tech
Sly sneer asks what’s the point
Bleeding eyes ‘hind a smoking joint

We’re the dark side of the American dream
That’s bursting at the seams
We’re the dark side of the American dream
That’s bursting at the seams

If jesus came down to preach
Cap his ass along with the teach
That’s the expectation that’s set
‘Bout as stable as an Afghan vet

We’re the dark side of the American dream
That’s bursting at the seams
We’re the dark side of the American dream
That’s bursting at the seams
We’re the dark side of the American dream
That’s bursting at the seams
We’re the dark side of the American dream
That’s bursting at the seams
