American Heavy Metal Weekend Lyrics by Circle Jerks

Wonderful

0

[Verse 1]
The Japanese buying up our guitars
Invade our beaches, driving cars
Hondas, Toyotas, Isuzurus
Fight 'em, beat 'em, got a lot to lose
Fenders, Gibsons, stack 'em high
Stack 'em up against the sky
Speakers blasting, blasting in vans
Make them wish they didn't land (One, two, three)
[Chorus]
It's an American heavy metal weekend
It's an American heavy metal weekend
[Verse 2]
The English, sure, we'll give 'em a break
With their Hiwatts and their Marshalls
It started here, make no mistake
It's always real and never fake
Platform boots and puffy hair
Gotta raise and scare
Metal merchants peddle their wares
Not US-made, buyer beware (One, two, three)
[Chorus]
It's an American heavy metal weekend
It's an American heavy metal weekend
[Bridge]
Ratt
Dokken
Quiet Riot, Mötley Crüe
Twisted Sister, dudes
[Verse 3]
What I want is what I need
Made here in the USA
Never ashamed, always proud
Always hard, always loud
Amplifiers vibrate across the globe
Send those rats back in their holes (One, two, three)
[Chorus]
It's an American heavy metal weekend
It's an American heavy metal weekend
It's an American heavy metal weekend
It's an American heavy metal weekend
[Outro]
Blue Öyster Cult
Van Halen
Kiss, Sammy Hagar, W.A.S.P.​​​​​​
Wyatt G.​​​​​​
Don't forget The Nuge, dudes
