Send American High Ringtone to your Cell
Oh, my God
I f**kin' love it
Come on
Check it out
I was that kid sittin' over in the corner
Smiling with a shit-eating grin
And I was that kid smilin' in the back of cla*s
'Cause I'm fryin' on mescaline
Well, I was that kid drinkin' 40's on the bleachers
Getting drunk after school
And gettin' home too late, fallin' on my face
Way too drunk to skate, actin' a fool
[Incomprehensible] actin' a fool
I was that kid never doing good at
Nothing except for maybe at P.E.
And I was that kid getting bullied by the Filipinos
Rollin' with ABT
Me and my friends reading the satanic bible
Thinking we should start a band
Cutting cla*s to jam, cutting cla*s to jam
In my dad's garage we learned to
Act a fool, don't need to be cool
Pissed off too and breaking the rules
Mama told me, stay in school
Don't rock 'n' roll but this was my American high
Check it out
I was that kid that was tryin' to f**k your girlfriend
Couldn't get a goddamn date
And I was that kid that was getting hella busted
For pissin' on the subway
I f**kin' hated school except for hanging out with my friends
The outcast that was startin' up a band
Fremont was the town, California-bound
Bay area sound, taught us to
Act a fool, don't need to be cool
Pissed off too and f**king the rules
Mama told me, stay in school
Don't rock 'n' roll but this was your American
Asteroids beat out homework
But [Incomprehensible] beat out Zeppelin
Not the sharpest noggin
That's why I'm in this band
And what you got against me
I don't need a new job
What you got against me
I'll get by on my own
Tellin' me I'm never getting by from my songs
I love it when you're proven wrong
Act a fool, don't need to be cool
Pissed off too and breaking the rules
Mama told me stay in school
Don't rock 'n' roll but this was my American
Act a fool, don't need to be cool
Break the rules 'cause this is your American high
Your American high
