Song Structure and Lyrics ------------------------- [INTRO: LEAD x2] [INTRO: RHYTHM] & [INTRO: LEAD x6] [VERSE] Just being here today I feel just like a long lost friend. Well just wait around cause the desperation's kicking in. [CHORUS] Yeah, it's already starting to mix with one of my best pieces of fiction. And it's called I'll be getting by and I'll make ends meat. 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? [BRIDGE] & [INTRO: LEAD x8] [VERSE] Ever get that funny feeling that your future's not gonna be legit, And that for sale sign that's hanging on your neck might as well spell defeat? [CHORUS] Yeah, it's already starting to mix with one of my best pieces of fiction. And it's called I'll be getting by and I'll make ends meat. 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? [OUTRO] My American dream is to have it a little bit better than my parents ever had it. My American dream is to have it a little bit better than my parents ever had it. My American dream is to have it a little bit better than it's just a force habit. [INTRO: LEAD x 6] My American dream is to have it a little bit better than my parents ever had it. ===============================================================================
