Start Jamming...
We're getting there we're getting this next song is uh, we've done this song a few times.
I've been accused of like anti-americanism
Well, you know, that's ridiculous
This is a song about the obnoxious tourist syndrome.
This is where people [B] go
make nuisances nuisance nuisance
nuisances of themselves
In other people's countries on vacation, right?
And of course Americans are just happen to be the worst offenders because they got the most money so they travel [Gm] most right?
That's all it is.
It does apply to other nationalities as well.
I mean even
even the incredibly polite Japanese can be quite [A] obnoxious when they're on holiday and you know
The red light district of Hamburg and [N] places that they like to go through
So anyway, this song is called the jet [A] set
