All-American Dream Lyrics

on the edge of the world where the neon screams diet-coke religions
shotdown tv-screens american boy loves american girl
most beautiful people in the shattered world i do believe
in all-american dream i do believe in all-american dream on
the edge of the world where the freon streams snortin' up
white mountains in the pools of white limousines millenium boy
millenium girl most beautiful people in this shattered world
i do believe in all-american dream i do believe in all-american dream
in god we trust in cars we rust an i do believe in all-american dream

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Mattymo19 1, 69Eyes 0.......and the sad thing is i'm a huge fan of the 69eyes...just doesnt make sense to me tho.
