Lirik Lagu Green Day - The American Dream Is Killing Me

[Chorus]
The American Dream is killin' me
The American Dream is killin' me
When it's all double-talk of conspiracy
The American dream is killin' me

[Verse 1]
Send out an S.O.S.
It's getting serious
Bulldoze your family home
Now it's a condo

[Pre-Chorus]
We are not home
Are we not home?
Goddamn, I am so grateful
Forever faithful to

[Chorus]
The American Dream is killin' me
The American Dream is killin' me

[Bridge]
People on the street
Unemployed and obsolete
Did you ever learn to read the ransom note?

[Verse 2]
Don't want no huddled masses
TikTok and taxes
Under the overpass
Sleepin' in broken glass

[Pre-Chorus]
We are not well
Are we not well?
Cracked up into the wild
We're pedophiles for

[Chorus]
The American Dream is killin' me
The American Dream is killin' me
When it's all double-talk of insanity
The American Dream is killin' me
Say!

[Interlude]
Woah, oh, oh oh-oh
Woah, oh, oh oh-oh
Woah, oh, oh oh-oh

[Verse 3]
From sea to shinin' sea
Whitewashed upon the beach
My country under siege
On private property
