《Knuckledown》歌词

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:00:51] Flailing her whole life

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

[00:00:55] Vehement romantic

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:14] It's me

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:02:04] To some imagined bliss

[00:02:07] I gotta knuckle down

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

[00:02:15] I gonna knuckle down

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:04:03] To some imagined bliss

[00:04:06] I gotta knuckle down

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

[00:04:14] Gotta knuckle down

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

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

[00:04:32] END

[00:04:32] END
