Difranco Ani - 32 Flavors слова песни
squint your eyes and look closer
I`m not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
and I`m beyond your peripheral vision
so you might want to turn your head
cause someday you`re going to get hungry
and eat most of the words you just said
both my parents taught me about good will
and I have done well by their names
just the kindness I`ve lavished on strangers
is more than I can explain
still there`s many who`ve turned out their porch lights
just so I would think they were not home
and hid in the dark of their windows
til I`d passed and left them alone
and god help you if you are an ugly girl
course too pretty is also your doom
cause everyone harbors a secret hatred
for the prettiest girl in the room
and god help you if you are a pheonix
and you dare to rise up from the ash
a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy
while you are just flying back
I`m not trying to give my life meaning
by demeaning you
and I would like to state for the record
I did everything that I could do
I`m not saying that I`m a saint
I just don`t want to live that way
no, I will never be a saint
but I will always say
squint your eyes and look closer
I`m not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
And I`m beyond your peripheral vision
So you might want to turn your head
Cause someday you might find you`re starving
and eating all of the words you said
