[Verse]
CHey there people I'm Bobby Brown
AmThey say I'm the cutest boy in town
DmMy car is fast, my teeth are shiny
GI tell all the girls they can kiss my hiney
CHere I am at a famous school
AmI'm dressing sharp and I'm acting cool
DmI got a cheerleader here, wants to help with my paper
GLet her do all the work and maybe later I'll rape her
[Chorus] 
FOh God I am the American dream
EmI do not think I'Amm too extreme
And I'm a Dmhandsome son of a Gbitch

DmI tell you people, I was not ready
GWhen I fucked this dyke by the name of Freddy
CShe made a little speech then
AmUuh, she tried to make me say when
DmShe had my balls in a vice, but she left the dick
GI guess it's still hooked on but now it shoots too quick

DmGot a job doing radio promo
GAnd none of the jocks can even tell I'm a homo

Chords in this song · guitar

[Verse]

Hey there people I'm Bobby Brown

They say I'm the cutest boy in town

My car is fast, my teeth are shiny

I tell all the girls they can kiss my hiney

Here I am at a famous school

I'm dressing sharp and I'm acting cool

I got a cheerleader here, wants to help with my paper

Let her do all the work and maybe later I'll rape her

[Chorus]

Oh God I am the American dream

Em Am

I do not think I'm too extreme

Dm G

And I'm a handsome son of a bitch

N.C.

I'm gonna get a good job and be real rich

N.C.

(Get a good, get a good, get a good, get a good job)

[Verse]

Women's liberation

Came creeping all across the nation

I tell you people, I was not ready

When I fucked this dyke by the name of Freddy

She made a little speech then

Uuh, she tried to make me say when

She had my balls in a vice, but she left the dick

I guess it's still hooked on but now it shoots too quick

[Chorus]

Oh God I am the American dream

Em Am

But now I smell like Vaseline

Dm G

I'm a miserable son of a bitch

N.C.

Am I a boy or a lady, I don't know which

N.C.

(I wonder, wonder, I wonder, wonder)

[Verse]

So I went out and bought me a leisure suit

I jingle my change, but I'm still kinda cute

Got a job doing radio promo

And none of the jocks can even tell I'm a homo

Eventually me and a friend

Sort of drifted along into S&M

I can take about an hour on the tower of power

As long as I gets a little golden shower

[Chorus]

Oh God, I am the American dream

Em Am

With a spindle up my butt 'till it makes me scream

Dm G

And I'll do anything to get ahead

N.C.

I lay awake nights saying "Thank you, Fred"

[Outro]

Oh God, oh God, I'm so fantastic

Em Am

Thanks to Freddie, I'm a sexual spastic

F G

And my name is Bobby Brown

Watch me now, I'm going down

F G

And my name is Bobby Brown

N.C.

Watch me now, I'm going down

F G

And my name is Bobby Brown

N.C.

Watch me now, I'm going down
