Lyrics Frank Ocean – American Wedding
Text:
i took a walk with the palm trees as the daylight fell
sangria in a canteen
talking to myself
this tattoo on my left hand
daydreams of the romance
daydreams of you
my pretty woman in a ballgown
i’m richard gere in a tux
getting married in a courthouse
writing vows in a rush
making out before the judge
with my teenage wife
got a wedding band done
that i just might die with
it’s an american wedding
they don’t mean too much
but we were so in love
we had an american wedding
now what’s mine is yours
thats american law
m-r- s dot kennedy
she signed her name in pen
in a fancy fancy cursive
then turned her term papers in
a thesis on islamic virgin brides and arranged marriage
hijabs and polygamist husbands
those poor unamerican girls
afterschool she ran to me
jumped in my 5.0
land of the free
but your parents still didn’t know
she said i’ve had a hell of a summer
so baby
don’t take this hard
but maybe we should get an annulment
before this goes way to far
it’s just an american wedding
they don’t mean too much
they don’t last enough
we had an american wedding
now what’s mine is yours
american divorce
well you can have my mustang
that’s all i’ve got in my name
but jesus christ don’t break my heart
this wedding ring won’t ever wipe off
but if you stay
girl if you stay
you’ll probably leave later anyway
it’s love made in the u.s.a
dont let em front you
to saying you cant move without em
fuck em i tell em this aint new
we been some hustlers since it began dude
aint gon’ be trippin ova some bitch ass dude
they so vain i tell em this aint you
you keep it sensitive but this aint true
these niggas cant do nothing that i cant do
that she cant
that he cant do
that you cant do
that we cant do
man i had a dream and that shit became true
and nigga if i did it i think you can too
these niggas cant do nothing that i cant do
that she cant
that he cant do
that you cant do
that we cant do
man i had a dream and that shit became true
these niggas cant do nothing that i cant do
that she cant
that he cant do
that you cant do
