Goin' to a ball game and findin' out there's a Subway in the stadium, so you eat a sandwich in a ball game
That dude, he's got a sammich, he is truly living the American Dream
Three hots (meals) and a cot (bed).
I wanted a mansion overlooking a bay, but now that I'm broke, homeless, and fucked-up, I'd settle for three hots and a cot, my New American Dream.
The American Dream®, though it used to mean something, has long since become a symbol of consumerism, corporatocracy, and, quite frankly, bullshit, to a large portion of the more critical population.
Well I'd like to tell you all about my dream, it's a place
Where strip malls abound and diversion's mere moments away
Where culture's defined by the
Ones least refined
And you'll be left behind
If you don't fit in
It's all distorted
In americana my way
Well my dream has come true
My vision has come true
Now give me my cable, fast food, four-by's, tat's right away
I want it right now cause my generation don't like to wait
My future's determined by
Thieves, thugs, and vermin
It's quite an excursion
But it's okay
Everything's backwards
In americana my way
Well my dream has come true
My vision has come true
I'm a product
Of my environment
So don't blame me, i just work here
My rights are denied by
Those least qualified
Trading profit for pride
But it's okay
Everything's backwards
In americana my way
My nightmare has come true
My nightmare has come true
Yeah, it's all coming true

Dude 1: Why does everyone hate me
Dude 2: maybe you should stop working a mediocre job only so you can afford driving a pickup truck, eating fast food, and sitting on your ass all day.
Dude 1: No way, dude. I'm just living The American Dream®
