American Dream Lyrics by Royal Republic

Weekend Man

2016

You hang around like the smell of ammonia
And I'm trying to weather you out
Is this as good as you get California
Without a doubt
I get a little distressed from the pressure
I get sick about doing my best
When you get stuck in the business of pleasure
You're put to the test
American dream
Well I can dream too
They're gonna forget no matter what you do
American dream
I'm living it up for you
It's like you wasting away to the border
But what if this is as good as you get
There will be time to reflect when it' s over
It's not over yet
He's got everything he's ever wanted
But he's stuck in a black limousine
Outside the windows, they line up to tore him
From living the dream
American dream
Well I can dream too
You gonna regret no matter what you do
American dream
I leave it all up to you
(oh.. la la la)
Everybody wants something better
Everybody wants someting good
You know it doesn't get any better
In Hollywood
American dream
Well I can dream too
You gonna regret no matter what you do
And if I can dream American too
Just don't let them tell you what you gotta do
Don't you ever, never no way
You wanna be New York but getting stuck in LA
American dream, I give it all for you
(oh.. la la la)
