Bradford H. Smith - Morning in America lyrics

[Verse 1] 1600, 1600—1600 on the SATs Said they gettin', said they gettin' Said they gettin' me an SUV Just a couple miles from the lights of the city Pour a little liquor in my Starbucks Venti Just 11, just 11 when they said I had the ADD [Pre-Chorus] I've been trying to keep up with all of these great expectations So I keep on faking [Chorus 1] We're secretly out of control, nobody knows it But my mom's got a problem with oxy's and she's angry Cause my dad's office door's always closed But I stopped knocking Yeah, we're secretly out of control and everyone knows Oh, it's morning in America Oh, it's morning in America Oh, it's morning in America Oh, it's morning in America [Verse 2] At the locker, at the locker At the locker selling time release Where's the party? Where's the party? Where's the party? There's a house empty Didn't learn a lesson, didn't use protection Doesn't wanna keep the baby Throwing up in the alley, in the alley Older brother looking for me [Pre-Chorus] I've been trying to keep up with all of these great expectations So I keep on faking [Chorus 2] We're secretly out of control, nobody knows it But my mom's got a problem with oxy's and she's angry Cause my dad's office door's always closed But I stopped knocking Cause there's some things I don't wanna know We're secretly out of control, nobody says it When the cla** president overdosed, we all pretended It was rare, it was shocking and all the town was talking Yeah, we're secretly out of control and everyone knows Oh, it's morning in America Oh, it's morning in America And everyone knows Oh, it's morning in America Oh, it's morning in America [Bridge] We're secretly out of control, nobody knows me And my friends all addicted to p**n, can't keep a girlfriend Cause the great expectations got all us imitating Yeah, we're secretly out of control and everyone knows [Chorus 2] We're secretly out of control, nobody knows it But my mom's got a problem with oxy's and she's angry Cause my dad's office door's always closed But I stopped knocking Cause there's some things I don't wanna know We're secretly out of control, nobody says it When the cla** president overdosed, we all pretended It was rare, it was shocking and all the town was talking Yeah, we're secretly out of control and everyone knows Oh, it's morning in America Oh, it's morning in America And everyone knows Oh, it's morning in America Oh, it's morning in America And everyone knows
