The American Patriots EP was chosen as the NME Record of The Week - details here.
The familiar pose
Gets up my nose.
So sincere and true.
All the broken hearted
And the sadly parted
I don't feel sorry for you.
Sat on a chair
Gazing in the air
Through a hazy focussed lens.
You don't judge my chances
Like you judge the years
Losing your lovers and friends.
Because apart from California love songs
And tunes full of wit
There's something I hate even more so:
Sentimental shit.
And as well as American Patriots
And handsome saps
There's something much much more obnoxious:
Sentimental crap.
A cry of despair
Searching everywhere
For someone or something to grasp
Well we all feel lonely
'Cause we're humans only
You must have a hand to clasp.
But I get so tired
Of all the uninspired
Songs about I love you.
How you came into my life
Or I slowly took the knife.
I don't feel sorry for you.
Because apart from California love songs
And tunes full of wit
There's something I hate even more so:
Sentimental shit.
And as well as American Patriots
And handsome saps
There's something much much more obnoxious:
Sentimental crap.
So if you're feeling very much in love.
Praising heaven above.
Please don't sing a song
About your love life going wrong
'Cause I won't listen...
The familiar pose
Gets up my nose.
So sincere and true.
All the broken hearted
And the sadly parted
I don't feel sorry for you.
Because apart from California love songs
And tunes full of wit
There's something I hate even more so:
Sentimental shit.
And as well as American Patriots
And handsome saps
There's something much much more obnoxious:
Sentimental crap.
Sentimental crap.
Sentimental crap.
