Ani Difranco - PICK YER NOSE lyrics

rate me

How come I can pick my ears

But not my nose

Who made up that rule anyway

How can you say that's the way it is

That's just the way it goes

Why don't you decide for yourself

What you can do

And what you can say

How come I can pick my friends

But not my enemies

What is it about me that offends

What is it about me

'Cause you know I'm only five foot two

And I'm giggly wiggly

Tell me again, what did I do

Why are you scared of me

I fight with love

And I laugh with rage

You've gotta live light enough

To see the humour

And long enough to see some change

I think shy is boring

I think depressed is too

I think pretty is nice

But I'd rather see something new

All these plastic people

Got their plastic surgery

But we got a big big beautiful

We got it for free

Who you gonna be

If you can't be yourself

You can't get it from t.v.

You can't force it on

Anybody else

You know they come to clear cut

They come to strip mine

They come for some of my big butt

My big brain

Or just a little time

They wanna take me out to dinner

Think I'm a bitch if I don't go

Seems like the people who actually like me

Won't allow me to say no

Your idea of a conversation is the third degree

But I don't really know you

And I don't really want to talk about me

'Cause I'm not going to pretend

That I don't pick my nose

That's just the way it is, my friends

That's just the way it goes

This is who I am

What I do

And what I say

If you like it, let it be

If you don't, please do the same

I fight with love

I laugh with rage

You gotta live light enough to see the humour

And long enough to see some change
