They have two children
It’s the American dream
White picket fences
That imaginary tale
Hollywood fills our heads.
Work full time to pay the bills
Sara also works nights
At the local restaurant
Gotta make ends meet
Dave tucks the kids in bed
While they ask where mommy is
Sara and Dave get up at 5 AM
They get ready to go slave
In a system corrupted with pulped wood
Their kids raised in the care system
Might as well be locked in a cage
Sara and Dave slave away
For some bullshit
That society says they need
It’s too bad
Sara and Dave didn’t stop to ask themselves
Is this how things really should be
Though, poverty, the alternative
Cause you can’t live in a system
This fucking corrupt
Without working your hands
Without working your mind
Into oblivion in order to survive
America sure is great isn’t it
Sara and Dave
It’s easy to survive
when you’re in the Government
