Testo Red Letter Year - Ani DiFranco
Testo della canzone Red Letter Year (Ani DiFranco), tratta dall'album Red Letter Year
new years eve we dropped mushrooms
and danced around the house
making music with everything that we found
incantation replaced resolution and we
vowed to allow each perfection that we could be
and the goddesses sent word that this would be a red letter year
they didn't mention how much shit was gonna change around here
it's just as well we weren't swollen with unfocused dread
we had visions of sugarplums dancing in our heads
dancing in our heads
first you go under and then you coming up gives you the bends
and when you break the surface
and all you see is your friends
so you grab your purple crayon
and flesh out the picture behind
and finally the whole world is made of one unbroken line
one unbroken line
when you wake up sick as a dog
with dull eyes and really bad hair
standing under a lit sign with the words "on air"
and the water is rising
it's coming in everywhere
just remember you are there
you are always, always there
and representing the white race
is a man with a monkey for a face
is flying over in a helicopter
whistling dixie and playing dumb
in a town that might put a gun to your throat
or rip the roof right off of your place
there's a mold crawling up the walls
and falling asleep in your lungs
and you and i both know how to drink so
we will always have work in this town
and besides the police are stationed at the bridge
and they're preventing passage to higher ground
so let's pull up a bar stool and get ourselves a ring side seat
for one unnerving moment
they're gonna show the truth on tv
