American Nightmare
It's about rejecting the conformist attitude that accompanies living in America, whether in suburbia or a trailer park.

Wunschliste
(Verse 1)
Why are you so pale white
In this sunlight?
Why is it noon and
You’re in a drunken stupor?
Oh, how cute your
Hair is dreaded like
You do with your future
(Chorus)
I don’t want to end up in that trailer park home over there
Drinking Mad Dog 20/20 at noon in my lawn chair
Screaming that life isn’t fair
If only somebody would care
Or had a dime to spare
Life would cease to be a nightmare
(Verse 2)
All the feelings that once got me high
Still quench my thirst even when the well has run dry
You’re past the point of trying
I’m past the point of crying
Only time will tell which one of us is lying
(Chorus)
I don’t want to end up homeless, like the guy who’s over there
Talking about a mold infection he contracted somewhere
Hindsight is 20/20
Man, I should’ve known
She’s a Pollack painting
Once her true color’s are shown
(Bridge)
I refuse to face life is just a race
To a final destination and
All our memories are just stories
Made up of lies and misinformation
Like what I hear from every girl I encounter
Whose only consistency is being a bitch to me
I keep waiting for this shit to change
The only thing that ever does are their names
(Verse 3)
Soccer moms, khaki pants, and minivans
Losing all their husband’s money on mystery shopping scams
At least the people in the trailer park have
A more compelling character arc
(Chorus)
I don’t want to end up in that suburban home over there
Having conversations about sports or guns or lawn care
Screaming Trump/Pence 2020
From my kid filled minivan
After dark I’m in the trailer park
Buying some heroin
