Lyrics
0:08I thought we wanted the same things
0:15I must be dreaming
0:19The American Dream
0:23Peace love happiness
0:29The impossible dream
0:32Opportunity freedom
0:38I must be dreaming
0:40The American Dream
0:43I must be dreaming
0:48I must be dreaming
0:50The impossible dream
0:53I must be dreaming
1:02What are we doing?
1:07What are we doing?
1:18Out of reach
1:21Double speak
1:23Got the White House pretty and pimped out
1:29Gun reform
1:31My body my choice
1:34Got the big TV to show you what you didn't even know you wanted
1:39Got the E.P.A
1:41Sure is hot today
1:44Low-grade fever lower-wage people
1:50How many folks got shot this week?
1:56It's enough to make you wanna go back to sleep
2:00The American Dream
2:05I wanna go back to sleep now
2:09The impossible dream
2:13I can't keep dreaming
2:20The American Dream
2:30The impossible dream
2:58Dream dream dream
3:05Dream dream dream
3:13Dream dream dream
3:21Dream keep dreaming
3:29Keep dreaming keep
3:37Dreaming keep
3:44Dreaming
I thought we wanted the same things I must be dreaming The American Dream Peace love happiness The impossible dream Opportunity freedom I must be dreaming The American Dream I must be dreaming I must be dreaming The impossible dream I must be dreaming What are we doing? What are we doing? Out of reach Double speak Got the White House pretty and pimped out Gun reform My body my choice Got the big TV to show you what you didn't even know you wanted Got the E.P.A Sure is hot today Low-grade fever lower-wage people How many folks got shot this week? It's enough to make you wanna go back to sleep The American Dream I wanna go back to sleep now The impossible dream I can't keep dreaming The American Dream The impossible dream Dream dream dream Dream dream dream Dream dream dream Dream keep dreaming Keep dreaming keep Dreaming keep Dreaming
