Stupid American Guy Lyrics by Jesse Ruben

Thoughts I’ve Never Had Before, Part 1 - EP

2012

[Verse 1]
I bought a ticket to Paris
Not for the food or the art
For once I ignored my reasons from before
For once I followed my heart
And all I took was a suitcase
And my favorite guitar
For once I could see there was nothing else I need
For once I followed my heart
For once I followed my heart
[Chorus]
Don't wanna go to the Eiffel Tower
Don't wanna see the Mona Lisa
Don't wanna spend every waking hour inside an old cathedral
I have no need for the palace at Versailles
If it were up to me, we'd spend the whole week inside
And I guess that's typical of a stupid American guy
[Verse 2]
We went and met her whole family
We took a walk in the park
For once I could see there was nothing else I need
For once I followed my heart
For once I followed my heart
[Chorus]
Don't wanna go to the Eiffel Tower
Don't wanna see the Mona Lisa
Don't wanna spend every waking hour inside an old cathedral
I have no need for the palace at Versailles
If it were up to me, we'd spend the whole week inside
And I guess that's typical of a stupid American guy
[Bridge]
Baby, I won't go back to the states
Unless you're coming with me
Maybe New York City can wait
It can wait
[Chorus]
Don't wanna go to the Eiffel Tower
Don't wanna see the Mona Lisa
Don't wanna spend every waking hour inside an old cathedral
I have no need for the palace at Versailles
If it were up to me, we'd spend the whole week inside
And I guess that's typical
I guess that's typical
I guess that's typical of a stupid American guy
