May you never feel as I do,
as the torment grows inside you.
You can fall all day
and there's no one there to catch you
when you're the American dregs
When there is no home to go to
and the streetlights seem to glow blue
all hope falls away
and there's no one there to catch you
when you're the American dregs
Soon you don't know what's true
and your mind begins to unglue
they lock you away
and there's no one there to catch you
when you're the American dregs
Then they get their cuffs around you,
the police report is simply untrue
you can die all day
and there's no one there to catch you
when you're the American dregs
