The Auteurs - American Guitars lyrics

Artist: The Auteurs

album: New Wave


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 again
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
American guitars
American guitars
American guitars
American guitars
Woke up 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
Are born to write
Some people
Are 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 them
They were the best band to be in
American guitars
American guitars
American guitars
American guitars
They were the real Europeans
In clubs across the land
People held a vigil
They were the best laid French band
