The American Dream

The United States Government Presents

I was born in Coastal Maine
Then moved away south of LA
San Diego knows my name (yo, what up Zach?)
But, now I live in cars and planes
These long drives, long flights
I wouldn't trade for anything

Everybody wanna piece of Americana (USA)
But she don't come so easily
All the kids are gonna do what they wanna, oh, oh
And when we get older, we can sing
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
We're all around the world living The American Dream, yeah
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
We're all around the world living The American Dream, yeah

Almost died in Carolina
Crashed the van, it caught on fire
If you've been down and out, throw up your lighters
We're a little older, little brighter
Time goes by, time flies
So don't you wait for anything

Everybody wanna piece of Americana (USA)
But she don't come so easily
All the kids are gonna do what they wanna, oh, oh
And when we get older, we can sing
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
We're all around the world living The American Dream, yeah
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
We're all around the world living The American Dream, yeah

Most of my friends got college loans
Sending them my love from the road
Got souvenirs from 50 states
Little magnets that say my name
Am I famous? Eh, not quite
But shameless? You got that right
A toast you your wife, toast to your life
Toast to the night, start it off right

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
We're all around the world living The American Dream, yeah
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
We're all around the world living The American Dream, yeah

Everybody wanna piece of Americana (USA)
But she don't come so easily
All the kids are gonna do what they wanna, oh, oh
And when we get older, we can sing
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
We're all around the world living The American Dream, yeah
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
We're all around the world living The American Dream, yeah
