KEN HENSLEY "YOUíVE GOT IT (THE AMERICAN DREAM)"

(Hensley)


From Running Blind,

Also on Blood On The Highway

One by one, two by two
We all step out into the human zoo
Three by three and four by four
Weíve all got ours but we still want more
Six by six and five by five
Itís success we want, dead or alive
Seven by seven, eight by eight
Iím alright jack and I ainít gonna wait

Itís real fright, itís real white
Itís in your neighbourhood tonight
It ainít cheap, itís no escape
Itís here and now, the devilís rape

You want it, youíve got it
Itís all yours, the American dream

Itís in the air, itís in the street
Just one hit, your image complete
I know Ďcause Iíve already been there
An empty pocket and an empty head
No-one listens to a word youíve said
Just give it up and dish it out
Theyíll make you think that they really care
