《American Dream(acoustic)》歌词

[00:00:01] American Dream - Various

[00:00:13] All work no play may have made Jack a dull boy

[00:00:19] But all work no God has left Jack with a lost soul

[00:00:24] But he's moving on full steam

[00:00:26] He's chasing the American dream

[00:00:29] He's gonna give his family the finer things

[00:00:46] Not this time son I've no time to waste

[00:00:51] Maybe tomorrow we'll have time to play

[00:00:56] Then he slips into his new BMW

[00:01:01] And drives farther and farther and farther away

[00:01:08] 'Cause he works all day and tries to sleep at night

[00:01:16] He says "Things will get better better in time"

[00:01:21] So he works and he builds with his own two hands

[00:01:26] And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand

[00:01:31] But the wind and the rain are comin' crashin' in

[00:01:37] Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands

[00:01:46] His kingdom stands

[00:01:54] His American Dream is beginning to seem

[00:01:59] More and more like a nightmare with every passing day

[00:02:04] "Daddy can you come to my game "

[00:02:07] "Oh baby please don't work late"

[00:02:10] Another wasted weekend and they are slipping away

[00:02:16] 'Cause he works all day and lies awake at night

[00:02:24] He tells them "Things will get better

[00:02:26] Just take a little more time"

[00:02:29] So he works and he builds with his own two hands

[00:02:34] And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand

[00:02:39] But the wind and the rain are comin' crashin' in

[00:02:45] Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands

[00:02:54] His kingdom stands

[00:03:02] He used to say "Whoever die with the most toys

[00:03:06] Wins"

[00:03:07] But if he loses his soul

[00:03:10] What has he gained in the end

[00:03:13] I'll take a shack on a rock over a

[00:03:16] Castle in the sand

[00:03:18] Now he works all day and cries alone at night

[00:03:27] It's not getting any better

[00:03:29] Looks like he's running out of time

[00:03:31] 'Cause he worked and he built with his own two hands

[00:03:37] And he poured all he had in a castle made with sand

[00:03:42] But the wind and the rain are comin' crashin' in

[00:03:48] Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands

[00:03:57] His kingdom stands

[00:04:16] All they really wanted was you

[00:04:18] All they really wanted was you

[00:04:21] All they really wanted was you
