ampersand (исполнитель: amanda palmer)
I walk down my street at night The city lights are cold and violent I [bad word] by the approaching sounds of [bad word] and sirens Even though the world's so bad These [bad word] out to help the dying And though I am no use to them I do my part by simply smiling The ghetto boys are catcalling me As I pull my keys from my pocket I wonder if this method of courtship Has ever been effective Has any girl in history said Sure, you seem so nice, let's get it on Still, I always shock them when I answer Hi my name's Amanda and I'm not gonna live my life on one side of an ampersand and even if I went with you I'm not the girl you think I am and I'm not gonna match you cause I'll lose my [bad word] yeah I'm just gonna watch you Cause I'm not the one that's crazy Yeah? I have wasted years of my life Agonizing up at the fires It started when I thought that to be strong you must be flame retardant And now to dress the wounds cause into question How authentic they are There is always someone criticizing me She just likes paying hospital Lying in my bed I remember what you said There's no such thing as accidents But you've got the headstone all ready All craved up and pretty Your sick satisfaction Those his and hers matching The daisies all push up'n Pairs to the horizons Your hands full of ketchup It's nice that you're trying The headstone's all ready All carved up and pretty Your sick satisfaction Those his and hers matching The daises all push up'n Pairs to the horizons Your eyes full of ketchup It's nice that you're trying and I'm not gonna live my life on one side of an ampersand and even if I went with you I'm not the girl you think I am and I'm not gonna match you cause I'll lose my [bad word] yeah I'm just gonna watch you Cause I'm not the one that's crazy Yeah? I'm not the one that's crazy Yeah? As I wake up to a cough The blaze consumed the block But poetically stopped at my apartment And my housemates are all sleeping soundly And nobody deserves to die But you were awful adamant That if I didn't love you Then you have just one alternative And I may be romantic And I may risk my life for it But I ain't gonna die for you You know I ain't no Juliet And I'm not gonna watch you wanna burn yourself out baby No I'm not gonna stop you Cause I'm not the one that's crazy, yeah I'm not the one that's crazy, yeah I'm not the one that's crazy?
