american guitars şarkı sözü

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...
