Sermonesque: The American Dreamer 2013

Think of all the things that Money can buy
Like a ranch in the mountains

Or a pleasure for your Eye.
Then think of all the things that a dollar bill won't bring
Like someone to hold you close and a song for you to sing.

Then think of all the years that it takes to be a Fool
Like the lessons you learn in a lifetime

Like your Lifetime was a school.
And then think of all the things

That don't turn out what they seem
Like the love that you thought you

Owned in the American dream.

The American dreamer

Sometimes a thinker sometimes a Schemer
Sometimes a child, sometimes a wise man
A lonely soul, a great extremer
But nonetheless the American Dreamer.
