so american (Live From Glastonbury (A BBC Recording))

[Intro]

Um, so, one thing that you guys should know about me

Is that I fucking love England, I love England so much

It's bands like The Cure that first got me acquainted with England, but, um

Now that I'm older and I've-I've been around the block a few more times

I have so many things that I love about England

I love pub culture, I love how nobody judges you for having a pint at noon, it's the best

I love English sweets, like I love all the sweets from M&S, like Colin the Caterpillar, specifically

True story, I have had three sticky toffee puddings since I have arrived at Glastonbury

So safe to say I love English foods

And, um, as luck would have it, I also really love English boys

I-I wrotе this next song while I was falling in love with this boy from London

And as wе were getting to know each other

We were discovering all of these, like, cross-cultural difference

And I would make fun of him for eating a jacked potato with beans inside of it

And he would make fun of me for pronouncing things very American, like

"I'm headlining Glastonberry," like it's a berry

And so, I took all of our little inside jokes and I made a song out of it

And it's called "so american," here it goes

[Verse 1]

Drivin' on the right-side road

He says I'm pretty wearin' his clothes

And he's got hands that make hell seem cold

Feet on the dashboard, he's like a poem I wish I wrote

I wish I wrote

[Chorus]

When he laughs at all my jokes

And he says I'm so American

Oh God, it's just not fair of him

To make me feel this much

I'll go anywhere he goes

And he says I'm so American

Oh God, I'm gonna marry him

If he keeps this shit up

I might just be in lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love

[Verse 2]

God, I'm so boring and I'm so rude

Can't have a conversation if it's not all about you

The way you dress, the books you read

I really love my bed, but it's hard to sleep when he's with me

When he's with me, let's go

[Chorus]

When he laughs at all my jokes

And he says I'm so American

Oh God, it's just not fair of him

To make me feel this much

I'll go anywhere he goes

He says I'm so American

Oh God, I'm gonna marry him

If he keeps this shit up

I might just be in lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love

[Bridge]

(I apologize if it's) A little too much, (Just) a little too soon

But if the conversation ever were to come up

I don't wanna assume this stuff

Glasto, are you in love?

'Cause I'm in love, love

[Chorus]

When he laughs at all my jokes

He says I'm so American

Oh God, it's just not fair of him

To make me feel this much

I'd go anywhere he goes

And he says I'm so American

Oh God, I'm gonna marry him

If he keeps this shit up

I might just be in lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-love

[Outro]

Glasto, I'd like to take a second to appreciate this fucking incredible band behind me

Will you give it up for them? Come on

They're the coolest girls in show business, I love them so very much

And I'd love to introduce you to them, if you have a second

Can we do that? Yeah?

Give it up for Daisy on guitar

Woo

Fuck yeah, give it up, come on

Arianna on guitar

Fuck yeah, incredible

Next up, Camila on the keys

Woo-hoo

Tonight would be so fucking boring without Jordi Soo on the drums

Fuck yeah

Last but not least, Camilla on the motherfucking bass
