Am I wasting my time?
Sitting here on the sidelines?
When the American standard is so high?

I won't try

I always thought of you

as a better kind of me
How wrong could I have been?
To covet is a shame

We'll never be the same
Nothing is for free


With the money on your mind
I will never pay you back a dime
Am I an arrogant begger who tells lies?

Curse my pride

I always thought of you

as a better kind of me
How wrong could I have been?
To covet is a shame

You'll never be the same
But nothing is for free


The American standard
is so high


The American standard
is so high


The American standard
is so high
