American girl

Every year it's the same thing,
Hates all the teachers,
Juvenile delinquent
Smoking weed on the bleachers.
Her boyfriend's a stalker,
He gets off of torture,
But if she ever left him,
He would be forced to, not, not, no, wait

What's the recipe?
Hate induced, got a grudge
Live in slut smudge (?), way too cute
Black eyeliner, lip liner, combat boots
Middle finger up to the world
(That American girl)

Love sick, hot chick,
Long lost innocence,
Stuck in the middle
Of beautiful average,
Teenage parenting,
Big dreams, navel rings,
Love that American girl.

Latin American,
Afro American,
Chinese, you and me,
We're all American girls.
I'm your American girl. (I'm your American girl
We're all American girls)

Rage against the system,
Prescription drug victim,
Punk rock and flower blossom,
Dealing with depression.

Ran away to the train track,
One supply of Prozac,
Her lover didn't love her at all.

The sound of silence,
Drowning out the sirens,
Cheap booze and cigarettes,
The best of all the contrasts (?).

Tattoos paint the picture,
A rebel saved the lecture,
Your daughter is a rolling stone,
American girl to the bone.

Love sick, hot chick,
Long lost innocence,
Stuck in the middle
Of beautiful average,
Teenage parenting,
Big dreams, navel rings,
Love that American girl.

Latin American,
Afro American,
Chinese, you and me,
We're all American girls.
I'm your American girl (Yeah). All she ever really wanted was
For someone to love her,
Someone she could love.
But instead she got
Some perv in a tie and a shirt,
Breathing heavy on the phone from work,
You jerk.

All she ever really wanted to be
Was the whipped cream on top
Of the American dream.
But instead she's not,
The tears are the truth and it hurts
And what's worse,
She's only happy in spurts.

Love sick, hot chick,
Long lost innocence,
Stuck in the middle,
Of beautiful average,
Teenage parenting,
Big dreams, navel rings,
Love that American girl.

Latin American,
Afro American,
Chinese, you and me,
We're all American girls.
I'm your American girl (Yeah).
