ANI DIFRANCO lyrics : "Educated Guess"

Looks like my crazy family
Is down one crazy daughter cuz
I'm shipwrecked in a desert that

Once was underwater just
Looking for a swift turn of phrase
Some colors to fly

As I float by
In the parade


Plus I dream in skin scented sentences
Of a stronger faster fiercer you
And to each noun, verb and predicate

I dedicate a vivid hue
But you ain't done too well
Getting past your permanent pastel

Have you now?
Yes, the desert seemed so promising
And then it paled somehow


So school is in session
Get your chin off your desk

Now pick up your pencil
And turn over your test
Use your education

And take an educated guess
About me


I've got a slot at eye level like
A speakeasy door
And I know you know the password

Cuz I've seen you here before
And I've got something sweet for you
And I don't care if it is more than you deserve

I've got a lot of love and a lot of nerve
So watch me while I take this curve


Yes school is in session
Get your chin off your desk
Now pick up your pencil

And turn over your test
Use your education
And take an educated guess

About me

Plus I have this whole new family

And I'm in love with each of them
And I'm on this list called lucky
Whenever I'm in reach of them

And I'm learning how to say
That I'd be happy either way
With your love


I'm calling on the stars above


School is in session
Get your chin off your desk
Now pick up your pencil

Turn over your test
Use your education
And take an educated guess

About me
