Pink suitcase
And a princess gown
A movie star in my home town
She said she came back home so she can breathe
She takes her pills
And sings her songs
With a broken delivery all night long
The life she had to live was tragedy
Daddy works for Jesus
Sister leads the Band
Bobby's out of rehab
And Lizzy's going in
Mothers medicated
Nothings what it seems
Suddenly she finds out the American dream
She woke up late in the afternoon
She smiled at me said I'm leaving soon
Why don't you pack your things and come with me
She takes her pills
And sings her songs
With a broken delivery all night long
Screaming Hollywood was made for you and me
Daddy works for Jesus
Sister leads the Band
Bobby's out of rehab
And Lizzy's going in
Mothers medicated
Nothings what it seems
Suddenly you find out the American dream
Now the stars don't shine in Hollywood
Now the stars don't shine in Hollywood
Now the stars don't shine in Hollywood
Daddy works for Jesus
Sister leads the band
Bobby's out of rehab
Lizzy's going in
Mother's medicated
Nothings what it seems
Suddenly you find out the American Dream
