Two Steps Behind Lyrics

Two Steps Behind lyrics

One life to live is what we really get

and we think we live, but all of us are dying

A little more each day

It's six o'clock time to get up

and get ready for work 'cause we can't be late

Or else we won't get paid

and everybody wants to make a little more

Than all the friends living next door

Security in exchange for emptiness

Is the price in the USA



Two steps behind of the American dream

Two steps behind and then some more

Two steps behind is where you'll find my boys and me

This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me

and I wanna do is wake up



How much money will it take

How many hours a day

will keep you from the grave?

Mr. Gates, are you gonna freeze yourself

like Mr. Disney did?

To keep your dream alive

So you won't have to die

Well, everybody wants to live a little more

Than all the friends living next door

Security in exchange for emptiness

Is the price in the USA



Two steps behind of the American dream

Two steps behind and then some more

Two steps behind is where you'll find my boys and me

This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me

and I wanna do is wake up



Wake up!

Wake up!

Wake up!



Two steps behind of the American dream

Two steps behind and then some more

Two steps behind is where you'll find my boys and me

This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me

This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me

This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me

This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me

and I wanna do is wake up
