Aimee Mann - It's Not Safe

All you want to do is something good


So get ready to be ridiculed and misunderstood


’cause don’t you know that you’re a fucking freak in this world


In which everybody’s willing to choose swine over pearls





And maybe everything is all for nothing


Still you’d better keep it to yourself


’cause God knows it’s not safe with anybody else





You can take your own advice and try again


But a thousand compromises don’t add up to a win


And they’d be happy if you’d only cover your tracks


But the trail of crumbs you’ve left won’t help you find your way back





So maybe everything is all for nothing


Still you’d better keep it to yourself


’cause God knows it’s not safe with anybody else


God knows it’s not safe with anybody else





You can play alongbut you’ll just end up wrong somehowwon’t you





-guitar solo-





But you’re the idiot who keeps believing in luck


And you just can’t get it through your head that no one else gives a fuck





So maybe everything is all for nothing


Still you’d better keep it to yourself


’cause God knows it’s not safe with anybody else


God knows it’s not safe with anybody else





-guitar solo-





God knows it’s not safe with anybody else


It’s not safe with anybody else


God knows it’s not safe with anybody else





-52 secs of silence-





(play that guitar


But you’re the idiot who keeps believing in luck


The speaker is out of the picture


I’m talking to the microphone


The microphone thinks that I’m talking


But I’m not talking at all


I’m singing to you)
