Jag har precis upptäckt Ani Difranco och jag är kär. Så jävla bra musik, spec. "Not A Pretty Girl" Live.



I am not a pretty girl
that is not what I do
I ain't no damsel in distess
and I don't need to be rescued
so put me down punk
maybe you'd prefer a maiden fair
isn't there a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere

I am not an angry girl
but it seems like I've got everyone fooled
every time I say something they find hard to hear
they chalk it up to my anger
and never to their own fear
and imagine you're a girl
just trying to finally come clean
knowing full well they'd prefer you
were dirty and smiling

and I am sorry
I am not a maiden fair
and I am not a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere

and generally my generation
wouldn't be caught dead working for the man
and generally I agree with them
trouble is you gotta have youself an alternate plan
and I have earned my disillusionment
I have been working all of my life
and I am a patriot
I have been fighting the good fight
and what if there are no damsels in distress
what if I knew that and I called your bluff?
don't you think every kitten figures out how to get down
whether or not you ever show up

I am not a pretty girl
I don't want to be a pretty girl
no I want to be more than a pretty girl

Och sedan den här låten som är från ett band som heter Lydia.

Lydia - This Is Twice Now



Jag hade fan rysnigar in i ryggraden efter jag hörde den här låten, fuck!

Baby just ask once more.
Because I saw your door wide open,
but the floor is still freezing.
Hailey I was sick and Im still quite unwell.
Tell me its you or nothing at all.
I stole your soul, because you said I'd never be able.
But the whole world is still on my string.
Second time now and you've done this before.
Drive around the back so I can't see them, but you're still freezing.
Let me take your coat and your keys and this car,
cause I've been unwell far too long now.
It's never much when I sing about you.
