We are graffiti on a subway train, two hands the shape of a heart, lyrics on a Coca-Cola classic cane, the promises whispered in the dark, we are Hemingway in a diaper, I love you in a dead language, progress running through them telephone wires, sneakers hanging by the laces. We are the mad wolves, dirty water, salt banks, from the city to the country, doing our thing, our way, we say things, how we're gonna say, freedom of our rage, we are born and raised on American slang, born and raised on American slang, yeah, we are vampires in Hollywood boulevard, angels and sinners in our hometown streets, an autobiography and a sleeve tattoo, our broken hearts can still beat, we are the mad wolves, dirty water, salt banks, from the city to the country, doing our thing, our way, we say things, how we're gonna say, freedom of our rage, we are born and raised on American slang, born and raised on American slang, yeah. She was Marilyn and Daisy Do, he was Dean and DiCaprio, neon turned into LED, and the lost boys all came home singing, we are the mad wolves, dirty water, salt banks, from the city to the country, doing our thing, our way, we say things, how we're gonna say, freedom of our rage, we are born and raised on American slang, we are the mad wolves, dirty water, salt banks, from the city to the country, doing our thing, our way, we say things, how we're gonna say, freedom of our rage, we are born and raised on American slang, born and raised on American slang.
