Ani Difranco - Hypnotized lyrics

rate me

So that's how you found me Rain falling around me Lookin down at a worm With a long way to go And the traffic was hissing by And i was homesick And i was high I was surrounded by a language In which i could say only hello And thank you very much But you spoke so i could understand And i drew a treasure map on your hand And you were no picnic You were no prize But you had just enough pathos To keep me hypnotized Hypnotized The map led to an island In a sea of store-bought dreams Where soulless singers sang Over beats built by machines And lovely girls were hovering Above my head like gulls With their long slender necks And their delicate skulls And i was no picnic I was no prize But i had just enough sweetness To keep you hypnotized Hypnotized So that's how you found me Rain falling around me Lookin down at a worm With a long way to go
