American Music (KINK) Songtext
von Violent Femmes

(Are you gonna buy the album now? Right answer)
Do you, do you have a copy of it? I don′t
(Uuh, personal copy?)
Well just yeah, wha- wha- other kind is there? Ha ha ha
No no no, well if you, oh oh okay, no I wasn't meaning to like hold it up
We should have the vinyl here it′s bigger
(No)
Well it is bigger, ha ha ha
(Size isn't the only thing bro)
Uuuuh, this is an older tune a lot of people like it
And it's fun to play
Starts with a question

Do you like American music?
I like American music
Don′t you like American music?
Baby


I want you to hold me
I want your arms around me
I want you to hold me
Baby

They do too many drugs
I did too many drugs
Did you do too many drugs, too
Baby?

You′re born too late, I was born too soon
But every time I look at that ugly moon
It reminds me of you
It reminds me of you
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

I need a date to the prom
Would you like to come along?
Nobody go to the prom with me
Baby

They didn't like American music
They never heard American music
They didn′t know the music was in my soul
Baby


You're born too soon, I was born too late
But every time I look at that ugly lake
It reminds me of me
It reminds me of me
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

Do you like American music?
(We like American music)
I like American music
(Baby)
Do you like American music?
(We like all kinds of music) all kinds of music
But I like American music best
(Baby)

You′re born too late, and I was born too late
But every time I look at that ugly lake
It reminds me of me
It reminds me of me

Do you like American music?
Do you like American music?
Do you like American music?
Do you like American music?
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me (do you like American music?)
It reminds me of me, it reminds me of me

(Yeah, c'mon let′s keep it goin' for Violent Femmes)
(C'mon let′s stand up and give these guys the applause they deserve for all these years of music)
(That is a Portland welcome for Violent Femmes, yes clearly we love you)
