Ani DiFranco - Knuckle Down
Thats just my cowgirl alter-ego
Riding on her bar room bull
Dripping with the sweat of irony
As the cowboys whoop and drool
Shooting glances at the mirror
To see if her scar is showing
She is truly going nowhere tonight
Lecherous old lady wanna-be
Much too young and shy
Flailing her whole life
Just thinking she can teach herself to fly
Vehement romantic
Frantic for forever right now
But forevers going nowhere tonight
Sick of goading her self-loathing
She thinks, I think Id better leave
Course whiskey makes me smarter
And Im happy as can be
But please excuse me darlin
Its not you
Its me
And theres a dusty old dust storm on mars, they say
So tonight you cant see it too clear
Still I stood in line to look through their telescope
Looked like a distant ship light
As seen from a foggy pier
And I know that I was warned
Still it was not what I hoped
Yes I know that I was warned
Still it was not what I hoped
I think Im done gunnin to get closer
To some imagined bliss
I gotta knuckle down
And just be ok with this
I gonna knuckle down
Just be ok with this
Course that star struck girl is already someone I miss
I swear some stuff you just see better from further away
And I think I communicate best now, the less I say
And I cant dance if the band cant play
And the vibe is going nowhere tonight
Cuz somewhere between Hollywood and its pretty happiness
And an anguish so infinite its anybodys guess
Is a place where people are all teachers
And this just one long class
And that ass will get you nowhere tonight
Theres a dusty old dust storm on mars they say
So tonight you cant see it too clear
Still I stood in line to look through their telescope
Looked like a distant ship light
As seen from a foggy pier
And I know that I was warned
Still it was not what I hoped
Yeah I know that I was warned
Still it was not what I hoped
I think Im done gunnin to get closer
To some imagined bliss
I gotta knuckle down
Just be ok with this
Gotta knuckle down
Just be ok with this
Course that star struck girl is already someone I miss
