A big town Synthetic apparitions of not being lonely Look, he's having a breakdown Oh what a let down, a shame, I think he might die Oh, she's dancing enthralling, I guess I gotta wait my turn I said, don't fall in love with the moment She said I've got a lot to learn You know I'm in love with this city But the green is turning brown And I just look pathetic now If she likes it 'cause we just don't eat And we're so intelligent, she's American If she says I've got to fix my teeth Then she's so American (she's American) And if she likes it 'cause we just don't eat And we're socially relevant, she's American If she says I've got to fix my teeth Then she's so American (she's American) She's inducing sleep to avoid pain And I think she's got a gun divinely decreed and custom made She calls on the phone like the old days, expecting the world Don't fall in love with the moment And think you're in love with the girl There's no more water in this city But be careful or you'll drown You think you've got it figured out If she likes it 'cause we just don't eat And we're so intelligent, she's American If she says I've got to fix my teeth Then she's so American (she's American) And if she likes it 'cause we just don't eat And we're socially relevant, she's American If she says I've got to fix my teeth Then she's so American (she's American) Well, your face has got a hold on me But your brain is proper weird Are you feeling the same? You just keep nodding at me looking vacant She's American She's American If she likes it 'cause we just don't eat And we're so intelligent, she's American If she says I've got to fix my teeth Then she's so American (she's American) If she likes it 'cause we just don't eat And we're socially relevant, she's American If she says I've got to fix my teeth Then she's so American (she's American)
