National Anthem

(album: B Is For B-Sides - 2004)

does being in debt feel just like a long lost friend
well just wait around cause the desperation's kicking in, and its already starting to mix with one of my best peices of fiction

and it's called i'll be getting by and i'll make ends meet does the forty hour week have you bent at the knees and you can't even see that everything's kept just out of reach

ever get that funny feeling that your future is not going to be bought cheap, and that for sale sign thats hanging on your neck might as well spell defeat, yeah its already starting to mix with on of my best peices of fiction

and it's called i'll be getting by and i'll make ends meet does the forty hour week have you bent at the knees and you can't even see that everything's kept just out of reach

my american dream is to have it a little bit better than my parents ever had it [x2]

my american dream is to have it a little bit better than its just a force habit

my american is to have it a little bit better than my parents ever had it
