ANI DIFRANCO lyrics : "Up Up Up Up Up Up"

up up up up up up points the
spire of the steeple
but god's work isn't done by god

it's done by people

up up up up up up points the

fingers of the trees
the lumberjacks with their bloody axes
are on their knees


and just when you think that you've got enough
enough grows

and everywhere that you go in life
enough knows


up up up up up up dances
the steam from the sewer
as she rounds the corner

the brutal wind blows right through her

up up up up up up raises

the stakes of the game
each day sinks its bootprint into her clay
and she's not the same


and just when you think that you've got enough
enough grows

and everywhere that you go in life
enough knows


half of learning how to play
is learning what not to play
and she's learning the spaces she leaves

have their own things to say
then she's trying to sing just enough
so that the air around her moves

and make music like mercy
that gives what it is
and has nothing to prove


she crawls out on a limb
and begins to build her home

amd it's enough just to look around
to know she's not alone


up up up up up up points
the spire of the steeple
but god's work isn't done by god

it's done by people
