If I got paid by the bottle, then I'd be a millionaire,
but cash flows in the opposite direction.
The world's not into funding despair.

If heartbreak was a skill set,
then my resume would be top-notch,
but corporate tends to frown upon
stumbling fools who reek of scotch.

The value of dollars tends to cheapen when it comes so easily.
With E! News stories of drunken coked-out celebrities,
I swear,
I've had it up to here.

Our number one commodity -
the American Dream -
has turned into a nightmare.
