The Greatest American Zero (Lyrics)

His father's footsteps Were much too big of him Couldn't deal with it Couldn't deal with heroin Needed respect so badly Never got none And now he's dead The President's son David's doing drugs David can O.D. David Kennedy is dead A million crystals Shot up his veins Shattered pieces Of the American Dream He'd never make a mark In human history For he died not like his dad But like an ordinary junkie Dreams of the White House It's all over now Dreams of the Pentagon Pent-up shit and it's all gone Tried to follow daddy's tracks Tracks in his arms was all he got A living example of the American Dream Died choking in his own vomit A wasted by-product Doomed to self-destruct Tried to kill the strain But in the end the strain killed him
