National Anthem

Does being in debt feel just like a long lost friend? Well just wait around 'cause the desperation's kicking in Yeah its 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 meet" Does the 40-hour week have you bent at the knees And you can't even see that everything's kept just out of reach Ever get that funny feeling that your future's not going to be bought cheap And that for sale sign that's hanging 'round your neck might as well spell defeat Yeah its 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 meet" 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 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 its just a force of habit My American dream is to have it a little bit, better than my parents ever had it.
