Parent's babies having babies
Their futures thrown away
The little girls cry
As their boyfriends leave them all alone

Men in black suits
Walking down N.Y.C streets
Making big bucks in the stock market
Livin'it up in bachelor pads.

Black, white, Hispanic, Asian
We all live the American dream
There is no definition
It is what you make of it

The long presidential race
It now comes down to two
Obama' or McCain'
Which will America choose?
Obama is the new president
Forever changing America

Superstars doing normal things
Stalked by armed paparazzi
Given no privacy
While the whole world watches

Black, white Hispanic Asian
We all live the American dream
There is no definition
It is what you make of it.
So go out and live your dream
