A
The ambition for excess wrecks us

A
As top of the mind becomes the bottom line

A
When success is equated with excess

A
If your time ain't been nothing for money

A
I start to feel really bad for you, honey

A
Maybe honey, put your money where your mouth's been running

A
If your time ain't been nothing but money

D      E             F#m
I want out of this machine

           E5
It doesn't feel like freedom

A                           D
This ain't my American dream

A                           D
I want to live and die for bigger things

E                             D
I'm tired of fighting for just me

E
This ain't my American dream

A
When success is equated with excess

A
When we're fighting for the Beamer, the Lexus

A
As the heart and soul breath in the company goals

A
Where success is equated with excess

E5                   D5              A
'Cause baby's always talkin' 'bout a ring

E5                  D5                A
And talk has always been the cheapest thing

      E5             D5        A
Is it true would you do what I want you to

     E5               D5              A
If I show up with the right amount of bling?

       E5          D5       A
Like a puppet on a monetary string

E5                      D5
Maybe we've been caught singing

E                     E5
Red, white, blue, and gree-ee-een
