American Guitars |
They were failing dutifully |
If you’re going to fail at all |
Failing came more easily |
Than it did to us all |
And i wanted to be there |
See them begin |
It was easy to see they were |
The best band to be in |
I gave up drugging |
When you spiked my drink |
Stopped freeloading |
When i could not get in I gave up singing |
When i was told |
I could not dance |
Knew my place in the world |
When i heard them start |
Woke up on sunday morning |
With a hole |
The size of my pool |
Couldn’t believe |
I? |
d grown so ugly |
Couldn’t believe |
I? |
d been so cruel |
I should’ve set back |
Thought about their past |
East coast to west coast |
How they’d struggled |
For their art |
Some people |
Were born to write |
Some people |
Were born to dance |
Thought i knew my place in the world |
Thought i knew my art |
Glad to be there, see them begin |
It was easy to see |
They were the best band to be American guitars… |
