American Scam
You missed the train in the morning
The rain it was pouring
Got you fired from
Your dead end job
There was cocaine on the awning
Mistakes are now all dawning
You're a liar to pretend it was God
American scam
A hand for a hand
Don't sink in the sand
If you think you can stand
American scam
Oh isn't it grand
Your heart in your hands
With no real plan
What do you gain from all these warnings
A false sense of endorsing
You got tired of
Being a fraud
Must you explain what you've been learning
These tables keep on turning
There's a fire that
You didn't start
American scam
A hand for a hand
Don't sink in the sand
If you think you can stand
American scam
Oh isn't it grand
Your heart in your hands
With no real plan
The rain it was pouring
Got you fired from
Your dead end job
There was cocaine on the awning
Mistakes are now all dawning
You're a liar to pretend it was God
American scam
A hand for a hand
Don't sink in the sand
If you think you can stand
American scam
Oh isn't it grand
Your heart in your hands
With no real plan
What do you gain from all these warnings
A false sense of endorsing
You got tired of
Being a fraud
Must you explain what you've been learning
These tables keep on turning
There's a fire that
You didn't start
American scam
A hand for a hand
Don't sink in the sand
If you think you can stand
American scam
Oh isn't it grand
Your heart in your hands
With no real plan
