Lyrics:
Tore up boots and a dusty road
The ole tales of american history told
A man once stood high on his horse
And stared down the barrels of just
You be my Link
I’ll be your Zelda
You be my Link I’ll be your Zelda
Now we American but I fly delta
You be the drug lord I’ll be Griselda
Our love is
watch and new ring on me
No young, all American boys
Running around stealing American joy
Learning how to plot with American ploys
Young fun dumb, raw
Hello
I'm your typical 20 gen z something
I have all this knowledge but I still know nothing
And I get nervous by all the simple things
Honestly, I'm
Hello
I'm your typical 20 gen z something
I have all this knowledge but I still know nothing
And I get nervous by all the simple things
Honestly, I'm
an immigrant
Palm trees and cactuses, I'm Mexican-American
Mexican-American what you know bout my people?
Yeah I weigh myself in pounds, but buy tortillas by
the gall
To have
American psychosis
American psychosis
American psychosis
American psychosis
Swallowed whole by red pill trap
In echo chambers you're
may be those within that outcast ten percent of the American people
Who someday will strike back at their oppressors
But to put down that mob, a mob
I'm loving taking over the world
Hot blooded, all American girl (Whoa)
I was raised by a television
Every day is a competition
Put the key in my
a shot"
Love in the United States
Empathy makes me a modern lay
American kids swing the American way
What do you learn from your lover?

THE AMERICAN DREAM
(Words & Music by Bernt Jansen)
A devil smile from the gambler
The deuces are wild
I see the world through a golden eye
Feels like
filled with happiness
She's my American Southern Dream
With her little angel wings tattoo
We fell in love by bonfire light
When she looked in my eyes then
this by now
Living that lux life and style
Chasing that American Dream
What to do
With the time in between
Chasing that American Dream
Where is all that
been makin' peace
With the fact black bodies are worth more if they're deceased
I'm trapped in a nine-by-twelve, awaitin' our release
Not takin' it
in a dive bar
I love you in a dead language
Progress running through the telephone wires
Sneakers hangin' by the laces
We are the back roads
the success
Of an American dream
Are you confused by the chaos
In everyones wandering eyes
Do you dream of running naked
In warm rain
Are you confused
of gold
Thick and thin, you’ve always been my only one
Living this American dream
There’s no place that I’d rather be
With you by my side, girl
I’m home,
Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came
friend, you can get killed just for living in
Your American skin
Yeah
Oh yeah
Yeah
Oh-oh
If I die right before I wake
Cross my heart, then I seal
Well, she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin' that there
Was a little more to life somewhere else
After all, it
Creeped out American girl
Creeped out by the carpet signals
Creeped out by the magical world
Everything is happening behind your eyes
Creeped out
Being here in America doesn't make you an American
Being born here in America doesn't make you an American
Why if birth made you an American you
programed to reap destruction wherever I go
I'm a bad risk for my credit is only backed up by the United States Government
My reputation is that
turned 62
And on the same day that I buried her
The bank foreclosed on her house too
It's my American dream
I've been all that I can be
And nothing
