Текст (слова) песни: Machine Head - American High

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 class
cause Im fryin on mescaline
I was that kid drinkin 40s
on the bleachers
getting drunk after school
Gettin home too late,
fallin on my face,
way too drunk to skate
and 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 class to jam,
cutting class to jam
In my dads garage we
learned to

Act a fool - dont need to
be cool
Pissed off too and
breaking the rules
Mama told me stay in
school
dont rock n roll
But this is my american
high

I was that kid that was
crank-calling
your girlfriend, couldnt
get a goddamn date
And I was that kid that was
getting hella busted for
pissin on the bart train
I fuckin 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 me
to

Act a fool - dont need to
be cool
Pissed off too and
breaking the rules
Mama told me stay in
school
dont rock n roll
But this is my american
high

Im that kid you tried to
punk in english class
Now Im in a band and
youre kissing my...

Asteroids beat out homework
Slayer beat out Zeppelin
Not the sharpest noggin
thats why Im in this band

And what you got against
me, I dont need a new job
What you got against me,
Ill get by on my own
Tellin me Im never getting
by from my songs
I love it when youre
proven wrong

Act a fool - dont need to
be cool
Pissed off too and
breaking the rules
Mama told me stay in
school
dont rock n roll
But this is my american
high

Act a fool - dont need to
be cool
Break the rules
cause this is my american
high.
