Lyrics:

The alarm clock rings but you don't move
But the wife gets up and puts on her uniform
You hear her in the bathroom 'cause she's got that nagging cough
You put your head under the pillow to forget you've been laid off
Suburban King, Suburban King
You had it printed on your van 'cause it had a pretty ring
Suburban King

The union man said you'd be recalled
But the company up and moved to Taiwan
You counted on the pension plan, but you were out of luck
The union says you only qualify for twenty-five bucks
Suburban King, Suburban King
You had it printed on your van 'cause it had a pretty ring
Suburban King, Suburban King
Your American Dream didn't mean a thing
Suburban King
