It’s crazy, I’m loving it
Living the American life it’s crazy
I actually learned to drive out here which was fun
Had to get a car obviously
Which I just almost couldn’t get
Had to fill out form and they want your credit
because in America credit is very important
I don’t understand the concept
I went to the car dealership and there was this Asian gentleman helping me
And we are going through the forms and he says
How long have you lived in America for?
I said I haven’t lived here for long
He said oh this no good for you, this no good for you
I said what do you mean
You can not lease car in America unless you been here long time
Because you don’t have credit okay
I said well I’ve got the money to pay for it
He says yes that’s not the point okay
That’s not the point in America okay
In this country we want credit okay
Our country focus on credit
If you got good credit you can buy anything
We don’t care about money we want credit
I said credit is the assumption that you can pay
He’s like no that don’t count here okay
In our country if you got good credit you can buy anything okay
His like our country our country and I was like
Look I hate to be rude but when you say our country
Do you mean our because you live here now
Or our because the Chinese own it
And he was like ah it’s a bit of both okay
But no credit no car for you goodbye
I couldn’t just buy myself a car
this horrible thing, drive around
and that's the worst thing, driving in America, wow
on the other side of the road
you feel like a rebel you know
until you see the other cars coming and then it's not so much fun
you know how many times I did that, just going to the wrong side?
Ugh!
and don’t trust movies, it's not easy to do that whole thing
No people don’t just drive, no they stop
