ANI DIFRANCO lyrics : "Adam And Eve"

tonight you stooped to my level
i am your mangy little !@^%
you are trying to find your underwear

and then your socks and then the door
and you're trying to find a reason
why you have to leave

i know it's 'cuz you think you're adam
and you think i'm eve


you rhapsodize about beauty
and my eyes glaze
everything that i love is ugly

i mean really, you would be amazed
just do me a favor
it's the least that you can do

just don't treat me like i am
something that happened to you


i am truly sorry about all this

you put a tiny pinprick

in my big red balloon
and as i slowly start to exhale
that's when you leave the room

i did not design this game
i did not name the stakes
i just happen to like apples

and i am not afraid of snakes

i am truly sorry about all this

i envy your ignorance
i hear that it's bliss


so i let go of the ratio
of things said to things heard
and i leave you to your garden

and the beauty you preferred
and i wonder what of this
will have meaning for you

when you've left it all behind
i guess i'll even wonder
if you meant it

at the time
