Off again back up to school
People there and people through
Empty smiles and backpacks full
Debts are climbing, but you're the fool
Off you goes to get checked up
Waited years to get saved up
Medicine held up on a string
Jump as high as you can scream
Ooo, silly goose
Ooo, silly goose
You can try, you can lose
Ooo, silly goose
Worn-out dolls and wedding bells
Bills and paper by the phone
Credit cards and more insurance
Just planning for the end
Tax the poor and the rich fly off
Drinking blood and writing it off
So this American dream that you speak of
It doesn't work for anyone
Ooo, silly goose
Ooo, silly goose
You can try, you can lose
Ooo, silly goose
Silly goose
Silly goose
Silly goose
Silly goose
Silly goose
Silly goose
Silly goose
