The Auteurs — American Guitars lyrics

Lyrics

They were failing dutifully
If you¦ ®e 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
I§Ј‚¬ grown so ugly
I§Ј‚¬ been so cruel
I should¦ іe set back
Thought about their past
East coast to west coast
How they¦ Ѕ 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…
