Weezer · Other Songs - Weezer
darling i'm afraid to close my eyes when i'm going to bed
afraid you'd crack the phone down over my head
why are all american girls so rough
damn the girl can't hurt you enough
lady, you knock me on my knees and i can't stand up
you've got the look in your eye you smack my butt
why are all american girls so rough
why do all american girls act so tough
why are all american girls so rough
(repeat the whole thing once more)
...takin' in my ribs...
so baby take it easy
let's try to be friends
why are all american girls so rough
damn the girl can't ever hurt you enough
lady, you knock me on my knees and i can't stand up
you've got the look in your eyes you smack my butt
why are all american girls so rough
why do all american girls act so tough
why are all american girls so rough
do do do do~
american girls, american girls~
why are all american girls so rough~
afraid you'd crack the phone down over my head
why are all american girls so rough
damn the girl can't hurt you enough
lady, you knock me on my knees and i can't stand up
you've got the look in your eye you smack my butt
why are all american girls so rough
why do all american girls act so tough
why are all american girls so rough
(repeat the whole thing once more)
...takin' in my ribs...
so baby take it easy
let's try to be friends
why are all american girls so rough
damn the girl can't ever hurt you enough
lady, you knock me on my knees and i can't stand up
you've got the look in your eyes you smack my butt
why are all american girls so rough
why do all american girls act so tough
why are all american girls so rough
do do do do~
american girls, american girls~
why are all american girls so rough~
American Girls - Weezer
Released in 2001, "American Girls" stands as a defining track from Weezer's debut album, The Blue Album. The song captures the band's signature blend of power pop and indie rock, featuring a driving rhythm section and Peter Hook's distinctive bassline that became a staple of their early sound. Lyrically, the track explores themes of teenage angst and the complexities of growing up in America, delivered with a raw, unpolished energy that resonated deeply with the post-grunge generation. As a cornerstone of Weezer's discography, the recording helped establish their identity as a major force in alternative rock during the early 2000s, influencing countless bands that followed in their wake.
