Given what you know
The American Dream is a Michigan hoax
You can see it from your window
Rust on the frame from the salt on the road
Tell me what you know
Time's moving fast but my brain's moving slow Tell me something that I don't know
You glide on the ice but you ain't got a goal
A dog and a house
Is this what it's all about
Now you're stuck in a glue trap
That you can't get out
And you'll die as a mouse
To the one who's scratching the couch Would you even let me go?
It kills me the most
The rain, the winter, the snow
It's almost not worth living
But I just don't know
I'll come back as a ghost
Just to haunt every house that you go Would you even let me know?
Would you even let me know?
Would you even let me know?
Would you even let me know?
Given what you know
The American dream is a Michigan hoax Tell me something that I don't know
Your cause for alarm is as pure as the snow
