Everything - Alanis Morissette





♫I can be an asshole of the grandest kind
I can withhold like it's going out of style
I can be the moodiest baby and you've never met anyone
Who is as negative as I am sometimes

I am the wisest woman you've ever met.
I am the kindest soul with whom you've connected.
I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen
And you've never met anyone
Who's as positive as I am sometimes.

You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can't relate
And you're still here

I blame everyone else, not my own partaking
My passive-aggressiveness can be devastating
I'm terrified and mistrusting
And you've never met anyone as,
As closed down as I am sometimes.

You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can't relate
And you're still here

What I resist, persists, and speaks louder than I know
What I resist, you love, no matter how low or high I go

I'm the funniest woman that you've ever known
I'm the dullest woman that you've ever known
I'm the most gorgeous woman that you've ever known
And you've never met anyone
Who is as everything as I am sometimes.♫



you might want a manual
a playbook
Rule Of Woman
this one, this woman
oh...you'd be so bored

you might want me stable
and predictable
agreeable and hanging on
your immutable suggestions
as if they were my very own
because my mistakes might be minimized
and your awkwardness reduced
oh...but I'd be so bored

    I never liked her because of the constant "yodel" she does in every song. Oh well.....

  6. Lorraine - Yay! Less "paperwork" for me!

    Travis - Can't say I really like her voice much. I identify with her lyrics though, which may not even be hers. Not sure if she writes her own stuff. Maybe I'll sing her songs my own way.
