American Junk

Jim Paredes

[Verse 1]
Leave me alone to my third world devices
I don't need your technology
You just want my natural resources
And then you leave me poor and in misery
Third world blues is what I got
Trouble, yes I got a lot

[Chorus]
(American Junk)
Get it out of my bloodstream
(American Junk)
Get it out of my system
(American Junk)
I can only take so much
(American Junk)
Gotta get back to who I am

[Skit]
Oh, hi there fella
Uy
Hey, what's your name?
Pedro
Oh, Pedro
No, no, Pedro
Yes Pedro
No, Pedro
Pangalan ko na nga 'yan babaguhin mo pa

[Verse 2]
You call it new music
I call it pollution
Your music I now see on my television (American Top 40)
Why is it now I can only sing (A da da da, a da da da)
In English language that you people bring
Why is it now that they only play
Top 40 music on TV and radio

[Chorus]
(American Junk)
Get it out of my bloodstream
(American Junk)
Get it out of my system
(American Junk)
I can only take so much
(American Junk)
Gotta get back to who I am

[Skit]
Ok Pedro, listen to me
Repeat after me, say "Apple"
"Apple"
"Apple"
No, "Apple"
No no Pedro, it's "Apple"
"Apple" mansanas, pareho lang 'yan
Kinakain 'yan, inchendes?

[Chorus]
(American Junk)
Get it out of my bloodstream
(American Junk)
Get it out of my system
(American Junk)
I can only take so much
(American Junk)
Gotta get back to who I am

[Post-Chorus]
It's been so long since I had
A glance of what I think I really am

[Chorus]
(American Junk)
Get it out of my bloodstream
(American Junk)
Get it out of my system
(American Junk)
I can only take so much
(American Junk)
Gotta get back to who I am

[Skit]
Hoo, ang hirap naman ng kantang 'yan Pedro
Yeah, why don't we go to the restaurant
And order the hamburger?
Okay let's go buddy, "Hamburger" Pedro
No, it's Pedro, ok we'll order french fry
No no, it's "french fries" Pedro
Oh, you like apple's pie
No no no, it's "apple pie" Pedro
Ahh, no no, it's Pedro
Oh, Pedro, yes
Yes, let's go to the restaurant right away
Let's go, Joe
