The Auteurs - American Guitars

Текст песни

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…
