Lyrics for Deep Dish by Ani Difranco:
| | | Artist: | Ani Difranco |
| | Album: | Little Plastic Castle | | Track: | Deep Dish | | | | Date Added: | 24/10/2007 | | Views: | 64 | | | | Lyrics: | cold and drizzly night in chicago's deep dish
fluorescent light of the bathroom
shows
my hands as they are
see an eyelash on my cheek
pick it off and make a wish
and
walk back out into the bar
wind at the windows
neon lights the patterned pane
/>
the waitress wields the weight
of her tray around her palm
the doorman cups his
hand
and lights his cigarette again
and the rain marches on
this is
only a possibility in a world of possibilities
there are obviously there are many
possibilities
ranging from small to large
before long there will be short
/>
before short there was nothing
when there was nothing
there was always the
possibility
of something becoming what it is
don't even bother trying
/>
to say something clever
clever is as clever does
no matter what it says
i'm
looking for a sign
says you're for real this time
but i don't trust what's in your
head
i walk up to the bar
and point to the top shelf
and then i throw my head
back
and laugh at myself
i raise a toast to all our saviors
each so badly
behaved
it's too bad that their world
is the one that they saved
/>
there's a spider spinning cobwebs
from your elbow to the table
while my eyes ride
the crowd
in a secret rodeo
i smile with my mouth
lift my watch up to the
light
say oh, look, i have to go
now you got to dance with me,
now is
when it's gotta be
'cuz i can't wait for the dance floor to fill in
if you want to
dance with me,
i'll show you how it's gonna be
cuz i can't wait for the band to begin | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
