Your Best American Girl

Your Best American Girl - Mitski

If I could

I'd be your little spoon

And kiss your fingers forevermore

But big spoon

You have so much to do

And I have nothing ahead of me

You're the sun

You've never seen the night

But you hear it's song from the morning birds

Well I'm not the moon

I'm not even a star

But awake at night I'll be singing to the birds

Don't wait for me

I can't come

Your mother wouldn't approve of how my mother raised me

But I do I think I do

And you're an all American boy

I guess I couldn't help trying to be your best american girl

You're the one

You're all I ever wanted

I think I'll regret this

Your mother wouldn't approve of how my mother raised me

But I do I finally do

And you're on all American boy

I guess I couldn't help trying to be your best american girl

Your mother wouldn't approve of how my mother raised me

But I do I think I do
