American hype!

American hype!

July the 4th the president stands above
Everybody says "god speed"
The addicts and the homeless hope they need
The suburban jungle are left all alone

Live the American dream
Will it become a nightmare?
Will you be so happy you want to scream?
Is America the over hyped dream? 

Stereotypical suit and tie people
Cashing in on the dream that is "Hollywood" 
Selling films like it is a reality 
Smiling and laughing drinking the king of beers "Bud" 

Set us free from this plastic suffering
How can you play on human feeling?
Live as who you are
Live as what you do
Don't buy into somebody else's dream
Stop selling a processed lie!
This is reality to you and me

This is just American hype
This is just American hype...

Well said Wayne, to me everything needs to be questioned and to me, America dosent seem real, it's like a hunger games themed setting, it's all a bit MAD.
