TITLE: My American Life
BY: D. Girard and A. Gillet
GENRE: Indie rock, folk rock, alternative rock

SOUNDS LIKE:


Destinee
Adele
Both



A Cadillac drives down my street
A bead sweat pouring slow down a palm line
I see a bumper sticker

It’s a bearded man with a wanted sign
A myth we’ve made to scare out fears away

A slogan that we slap on all our misdirected date
A muddy symbol meant to mitigate our pain

But it’s really just a desert corpse
We’ve painted on the wall out in some cave


Anyway...
I don’t know where he’s going to park that thing

My neighborhood drunk’s online at the deli

With his shaky hands and his swollen face, he waits for his coffee
He blacks out curbside every night
And every day crawls back towards Wall Street.

So I don’t see it like it’s us and them
I just see everybody working for that same eternal weekend
Droning on and on and on and never doing what we wanted
Heavy legs, two steps behind some forever dangling carrot.


And I’m tired of this
So who’s to say that we can’t fucking change it?


And I know it seems dramatic
And I treat it like a crisis
The office to the coffin

All our time and talent wasted
And that weight against your throat
Is that a noose dressed like a necktie?


From here, I couldn’t really tell the difference
Either way, I say let’s not take any chances

Because I don’t know where he’s going to park that thing

Well, I don’t know where he’s going to park that thing
No, I don’t know where he’s going to park that thing

erich:you both are welcome.i should thank you too. as i just recently learned the reunion will not be happening because most of the people involved are dead. i knew there was a reason i kept my nose out of the tabloids.

Adele: *whispers to Destinee* Je ne sais pas de quoi il parle...

Destinee: *whispers to Adele* Moi non plus, mais je pense que nous allons le garder de commettre des incendies criminels, alors continuez comme ça..

Adele: Um... Merci?

(Translation:

Adele: I don't know what he's talking about...

Destinee: I don't either, but I think we're keeping him from committing arson, so keep it up.)
