Gravel Lyrics

Artist: Ani Difranco
Album: Little Plastic Castle

I heard the sound of your bike
as your wheels hit the gravel
and your engine in the driveway, cutting off
I pushed through the screen door
and I stood out on the porch
thinking fight, fight, fight, at all costs
But instead I let you in
just like I've always done
I sat you down and offered you a beer
and across the kitchen table
I fired several rounds
but you were still sitting there when the smoke cleared
You came crawling back to say
that you want to make good in the end
oh, let me count the ways that I abhore you
you were never a good lay
and you never were a good friend
but oh, what can I say, I adore you
All I need is my leather
one t-shirt and two socks
I'll keep my hands warm in your pockets
and you can use the engine blocks
we'll ride out to California
with my arms around your chest
and i'll pretend this is real
cuz this is what I like best
You've been juggling two women
like a stupid circus clown
telling us both we are the one
and maybe you can keep me
from ever being happy
but you're not going to stop me
from having fun
So let's go, before I change my mind
I'll leave the luggage of all your lies behind
cuz I am bigger than everything that came before
you were never very kind
and you let me way down every time
but oh, what can I say, I adore you

by LuckyLiss on 4/19/2009 11:52pm What are you haters even talking about??!! "Choppy and awful," that's a disgrace!!! Ani Difranco is one of the only real ones left. She is the definition of what a musician should be! She shares with us what is in her heart and soul. Don't partake if you are going to hate!!! Btw, I wouldn't suggest Ani to anyone with half a brain who doesn't appreciate music!!!!!
