The Lyrics
Out of Japan for forty days
Last night in San Jose, he was so amazed
He's used to be friendly with some nerds
But he's lost someplace, and he felt very absurd
He adopted by some creep
An all-nighter who never wants to sleep
Proven him worthy, that this dope
Was really clumsy and straight outta Tokyo
He's no American man
He's no American man
Will he be lost and found
All over every town?
He's no American man
This young Frenchman was off the wall
Living in some high school's boys bathroom stall
Playing tricks, talking trash and he's still out of mind
Some security guys had still came out blind
Now hall monitors just had a plan
To find out more about this beret man
They said "Where were you? Where'd you come from?"
The Frenchman replied "You know I am not numb."
He's no American man
He's no American man
Will he be lost and found
All over every town?
He's no American man
He's no American man
He's no American man
Will he be lost and found
All over every town?
He's no American man
He's no American man
He's no American man
He's no American man
Last night in San Jose, he was so amazed
He's used to be friendly with some nerds
But he's lost someplace, and he felt very absurd
He adopted by some creep
An all-nighter who never wants to sleep
Proven him worthy, that this dope
Was really clumsy and straight outta Tokyo
He's no American man
He's no American man
Will he be lost and found
All over every town?
He's no American man
This young Frenchman was off the wall
Living in some high school's boys bathroom stall
Playing tricks, talking trash and he's still out of mind
Some security guys had still came out blind
Now hall monitors just had a plan
To find out more about this beret man
They said "Where were you? Where'd you come from?"
The Frenchman replied "You know I am not numb."
He's no American man
He's no American man
Will he be lost and found
All over every town?
He's no American man
He's no American man
He's no American man
Will he be lost and found
All over every town?
He's no American man
He's no American man
He's no American man
He's no American man

This makes no sense. It paces just fine, but what the heck is it about? 422
