SR-71 LYRICS

"All American"

I never got high first time that I tried
Just like everyone
I know the cigarettes were bold
For a little four foot nothing ten year-old
On hot summer days
We'd run off to the mall
Send security climbin' up the walls
Just like everyone
We thought we'd be forever young

Oh yeah
I'm not so original
Never to be cynical
A little unstable
Clinically labelled
Fucked-up all-American
Oh yeah
I'm totally miserable
Ever to be pigeon-holed
Completely obsessive
Manic depressive
Fucked-up all-American

We lived out our lives like we would never die
Just like everyone
But before Keith went to bed
He put a double barrel shotgun to his head

Oh yeah
I'm not so original
Never to be cynical
A little unstable
Clinically labelled
Fucked-up all-American
Oh yeah
I'm totally miserable
Ever to be pigeon-holed
Completely obsessive
Manic depressive
Fucked-up all-American

Smashing bottles and cans
For reasons I don't understand
When I look at the past
It's like staring at pieces of broken glass [glass echoes repeatedly]
Broken glass [glass echoes repeatedly]

Oh yeah
Not so original
Completely fuckin' miserable [echo]
A little unstable [echo]
A little unstable
Oh yeah
Totally miserable
Ever to be pigeon-holed
A little unstable
Clinically labelled
Fucked-up all-American
Totally miserable
Ever to be pigeon-holed
Completely obsessive
Manic depressive
Fucked-up all-American
Fucked-up all-American
Yeah
Fucked-up all-American [echoes All-American]
Yeah
Yeah
