Mouse Trap

[Verse 1]
Given what you know
The American dream is a Michigan hoax
You can see it from your window
Rust on the frame from the salt on the road

[Verse 2]
Tell me what you know
Time's movin' fast but my brain's movin' slow
Tell me something that I don't know
You glide on the ice but you ain't got a goal

[Chorus]
A dog and a house
Is this what it's all about?
Now you're stuck in a glue trap
That you can't get out
And you'll die as a mouse
To the one who's scratching the couch

Would you even let me go?

[Bridge]
It kills me the most
The rain, the winter, the snow
It's almost not worth living
But I just don't know
I'll come back as a ghost
Just to haunt every house that you go[?]

[Refrain]
Would you even let me know?
Would you even let me know?
Would you even let me know?
Would you even let me know?

[Outro]
Given what you know
The American dream is a Michigan hoax
Tell me something that I don't know
Your cause for alarm is as pure as the snow
