Ani Difranco - Swing [Album Version] lyrics

She came to and her Whole life was how she remembered it She had a mouth full of fur And she was laughing She parked her hearse across Three spaces posted motorcycles only And jumped out shouting Wha the cus could make a nice girl like us Feel so lonely? Are you weary as water In a faucet left dripping With an incessant sadness Like a sad record skipping And an ugly and ornery And shadowy dread Lurking like a troll under the bridge Between your heart and your head Please dumb blind kind sir Lend little miss listless a little bit of Christmas She's been a real good girl But now she's stuck here The world is so little and still Mysterious and ominous as ever before Like an unmarked bottle of pills On the shelf right next to the thing You were reaching for Swing the groove 'round here Where I can reach it When I get my a** back on track I'm gonna need it Swing shift til I get the money To buy me and my baby a moon full of honey Then I'm gonna turn off the nagging voices Inside my head That follow me to bed and say You s** If you dig it on the sound Break it down No walls up, break it down Break it down Happiness spread it all around Break it down Racism stomp it in the ground Break it down So if you dig it on the sound Break it down No walls up, break it down Break it down Ignorance stomp it in the ground Break it down Happiness spread it all around Break it down Check, who said folk and hip-hop can't latch Put us together on the stage and light a match Kaboom, guess who stepped in the room Sweeping you off your feet like we had a broom With Ani Difranco and Maceo Add a little freestyle flow and who knows Put a little scratchin' into the mix And it's enough to get you high if you need a fix So, if you dig it on the sound Break it down No walls up, break it down Break it down Ignorance stomp it in the ground Break it down Happiness spread it all around Break it down If you dig it on the sound Break it down No walls up, break it down Break it down Racism stomp it in the ground Break it down Happiness spread it all around Break it down So, if you dig it on the sound Break it down
