American Girl

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Goin' down to the dance factory Bright lights is where I wanna be Subsonic is what I wanna hear [Verse 2] He said, "Girl, you paint your face and you color your heart Cover your tears with beauty marks You work so hard to be a work of art Are you black and blue?" Uh, ooh-ooh [Pre-Chorus] He said (uh-huh) Now that you've got the beat (uh-huh) You got wings on your feet (uh-huh) Do you remember me? [Chorus] Ameri-meri-meri-merican girl Whatever happened to your ribbons and curls? Can you tell me, tell me where, tell me Where did the young girls go? Uh-huh, it's such a brave new world Oh yeah, for you American girl (American girl) [Verse 3] Don't wanna talk, baby, read my lips Tonight I want some friction on my fingertips If love is blind, I'm gonna feel my way [Verse 4] I think I heard you say, uh "You paint your face and you color your heart You cover your tears with beauty marks You work so hard to be a work of art Are you black and blue?" Uh, ooh-ooh [Pre-Chorus] He said (uh-huh) Now that you've got the beat (uh-huh) You got wings on your feet (uh-huh) Do you remember me? [Chorus] Ameri-meri-meri-merican girl Whatever happened to your ribbons and curls? Can you tell me, tell me where, tell me Where did the young girls go? Oh-oh, it's such a brave new world Uh-huh, for you American girl [Bridge] You got the walk, you got the talk down cold You got the eyes, you act so bold You do the French twist, you do the Spanish shake You're so international (in heartbreak) [Pre-Chorus] He said (uh-huh) Now that you've got the beat (uh-huh) You got wings on your feet (uh-huh) Do you remember me? [Chorus] Ameri-meri-meri-merican girl (American girl) Whatever happened to your ribbons and curls? (American girl) Can you tell me, tell me where, tell me Where did the young girls go? (American girl) Huh, where did they go? (American girl) Ameri-meri-meri-merican girl (American girl) Whatever happened to your ribbons and curls? (American girl) Can you tell me, tell me where, tell me Where did the young girls go? (American girl) Where did they go, go, go, go, go? (American girl) Ameri-meri-meri-merican girl (American girl) Whatever happened to your ribbons and curls? (American girl) Can you tell me, tell me where, tell me Where did the young girls go? (American girl)
