ani difranco-half-assed

you start trippin

and i start slippin away

i was taught to zip it

if i got nothin nice to say

and down in the texas of my heart

driving a really big truck

headed down a dirt road

my love is scrunchin up its features

the really big eyes

big lips, big nose

just show me a moment that is mine

its beauty blinding and unsurpassed

make me forget every moment that went by

and left me so half-hearted

cuz i felt it so half-assed

you are an unruly translucent

a dirty windshield with a shifting view

so many cunning running landscapes

for my dented door to open into

i just wanna tune out all the billboards

weld myself a mental shield

i just wanna put down all the pressures

and feel how i really feel

just show me a moment that is mine

its beauty blinding and unsurpassed

make me forget every moment that went by

and left me so half-hearted

cuz i felt it so half-assed

spring is super in the supermarkets

and the strawberries prance and glow

nevermind that they're all kinda tart and tasteless

as strawberries go

meanwhile wild things are not for sale

anymore than they are for show

so i'll be outside, in love with the kind of beauty

it takes more than eyes to know

just show me a moment that is mine

its beauty blinding and unsurpassed

and i'll forget every moment that went by

and left me so half-hearted

cuz i felt it so half-assed
