《Paradigm》歌词

[00:00:00] Paradigm (典范) - Ani Difranco (安妮·迪弗兰科)

[00:00:38] I was born to two immigrants

[00:00:41] Who knew why they were here

[00:00:46] They were happy to pay taxes

[00:00:48] For the schools and roads

[00:00:50] Happy to be here

[00:00:54] They took it seriously

[00:00:58] The second job of citizenry

[00:01:02] My mother went campaigning door to door

[00:01:06] And holding to her hand was me

[00:01:10] I was just a girl in a room full of women

[00:01:14] Licking stamps and laughing

[00:01:18] I remember the feeling of community brewing

[00:01:22] Of democracy happening

[00:01:26] But I suppose like anybody

[00:01:48] I had to teach myself to see

[00:01:52] All that stuff that got lost

[00:01:54] On its way to church

[00:01:56] All that stuff that got lost

[00:01:58] On its way to school

[00:02:00] All that stuff that got lost

[00:02:03] On its way to the house of my family

[00:02:06] All that stuff that was not lost on me

[00:02:12] Teach myself to see each of us

[00:02:15] Through the lens of forgiveness

[00:02:16] Like we＇re stuck with each other (god forbid )

[00:02:21] Teach myself to smile and stop and talk

[00:02:24] To a whole other color kid

[00:02:29] Teach myself to be new in an instant

[00:02:32] Like the truth is accessible at any time

[00:02:36] Teach myself it＇s never really one or the other

[00:02:41] There＇s a paradox in every paradigm

[00:03:18] I was just a girl in a room full of women

[00:03:22] Licking stamps and laughing

[00:03:26] I remember the feeling of community brewing

[00:03:30] Of democracy happening
