Ani DiFranco - Knuckle Down[00:00:00]

That's just my cowgirl alter-ego[00:00:32]

Riding on her bar room bull[00:00:33]

Dripping with the sweat of irony[00:00:36]

As the cowboys whoop and drool[00:00:37]

Shooting glances at the mirror[00:00:39]

To see if her scar is showing[00:00:41]

She is truly going nowhere tonight[00:00:43]

Lecherous old lady wanna-be[00:00:47]

Much too young and shy[00:00:49]

Flailing her whole life[00:00:51]

Just thinking she can teach herself to fly[00:00:52]

Vehement romantic[00:00:55]

Frantic for forever right now[00:00:56]

But forever's going nowhere tonight[00:00:59]

Sick of goading her self-loathing[00:01:03]

She thinks, I think I'd better leave[00:01:04]

'Course whiskey makes me smarter[00:01:07]

And I'm happy as can be[00:01:09]

But please excuse me darlin[00:01:11]

It's not you[00:01:12]

It's me[00:01:14]

And there's a dusty old dust storm on mars, they say[00:01:18]

So tonight you can't see it too clear[00:01:23]

Still I stood in line to look through their telescope[00:01:26]

Looked like a distant ship light[00:01:34]

As seen from a foggy pier[00:01:38]

And I know that I was warned[00:01:43]

Still it was not what I hoped[00:01:45]

Yes I know that I was warned[00:01:51]

Still it was not what I hoped[00:01:53]

I think I'm done gunnin to get closer[00:01:59]

To some imagined bliss[00:02:04]

I gotta knuckle down[00:02:07]

And just be ok with this[00:02:10]

I gonna knuckle down[00:02:15]

Just be ok with this[00:02:18]

'Course that star struck girl is already someone I miss[00:02:24]

I swear some stuff you just see better from further away[00:02:46]

And I think I communicate best now, the less I say[00:02:50]

And I can't dance if the band can't play[00:02:54]

And the vibe is going nowhere tonight[00:02:58]

'Cuz somewhere between Hollywood and its pretty happiness[00:03:02]

And an anguish so infinite it's anybody's guess[00:03:06]

Is a place where people are all teachers[00:03:09]

And this just one long class[00:03:12]

And that ass will get you nowhere tonight[00:03:14]

There's a dusty old dust storm on mars they say[00:03:18]

So tonight you can't see it too clear[00:03:22]

Still I stood in line to look through their telescope[00:03:26]

Looked like a distant ship light[00:03:34]

As seen from a foggy pier[00:03:38]

And I know that I was warned[00:03:42]

Still it was not what I hoped[00:03:44]

Yeah I know that I was warned[00:03:50]

Still it was not what I hoped[00:03:53]

I think I'm done gunnin to get closer[00:03:59]

To some imagined bliss[00:04:03]

I gotta knuckle down[00:04:06]

Just be ok with this[00:04:09]

Gotta knuckle down[00:04:14]

Just be ok with this[00:04:18]

'Course that star struck girl is already someone I miss[00:04:24]

END[00:04:32]

END[00:04:32]
