Paroles de American Way

Well it's true what they say The American way Is built on someone's tears They alone, are the lucky ones Take when they came With promises made How long — 100 thousand years so far? Would really like to hurry things up D'like to know, better than History, when lies began I saw the truth I couldn't lie I'd take it back a thousand times But now you've gone and thrown it all away You are king of the world Yet you plunder - always saying something new Please I can't guide them anymore I saw (what they did) Like to know, better than Eyes that change when youth began I saw the truth I couldn't lied I'd give it back a thousand times Armed a child, let her — there I saw it all pretend I had (Pretend) I cared Not at all
