American Life(Album Version)

American Life-Primus[00:00:01]

In a town in southernmost Sicily[00:01:19]

Lived a family too proud to be poor[00:01:22]

In the year that fever took father away[00:01:25]

They hastened for American shores[00:01:27]

Now a mother and her son are standing in line[00:01:30]

It’s a cold day on Ellis Isle[00:01:33]

And they look to the Statue of Liberty[00:01:35]

For the boy we have American Life[00:01:43]

Ong is a Laotian refugee[00:02:04]

He works in the audio trade[00:02:06]

The smoke from flux is filling his lungs[00:02:09]

He’s earning minimum wage[00:02:11]

Spending spare time down on[00:02:14]

San Pablo ave[00:02:15]

Once a week gets a woman for the night[00:02:16]

And he writes home tales of prosperity[00:02:19]

For the boy we have American Life[00:02:26]

Bob is an unemployed veteran[00:09:31]

Born and bred in the South Bronx[00:09:33]

He’s living off the streets down in east L A [00:09:35]

Residing in a cardboard box[00:09:38]

Now he plays a little quit and he has a small dog[00:09:41]

Searching for aluminum cans[00:09:44]

And he hold on tight to his dignity[00:09:47]

For the boy we have American Life[00:09:53]

He was born into American Life[00:09:59]

For the boy we have American Life[00:10:04]
