Ani Always Says It Best

UNTOUCHABLE FACE: By Ani Difranco

Think I'm going for a walk now

I feel a little unsteady

I don't want noone to follow me except maybe you

I could make you happy, you know if you weren't already

I could do a lot of things and I do

Tell you the truth I prefer the worst of you

too bad you had to have a better half

she's not really my type

but I think you two are forever

and I hate to say it, but you're perfect together

So fuck you and your untouchable face

fuck you for existing in the first place

and who am I that I should be vying for your touch

who am I

bet you can't even tell me that much

2:30 in the morning my gas tank will be empty soon

neon sign on the horizon rubbing elbowes with the moon

safe haven of the sleepless where the deep fryer's always on

radio is counting down top 20 country songs

Out on the porch the fly strip is waving like a flag in the wind

you know I really don't look forward to seeing you again

You look like a photograph of yourself taken from far far away

and I won't know what to do and I won't know what to say

Except fuck you and your untouchable face

and fuck you for existing in the first place

and who am I, that I should be vying for your touch

who am I, I bet you cant even tell me that much

I see you when I'm so perplexed

what was I thinking what will I think of next

where can I hide

in the back room there's a lamp that hangs over the pool table

and the fan that's on it swings gently side to side

there's a changing constellation of balls as we are playing

I see orion and say nothing the only thing I can think of saying is

Fuck you and your untouchable face

and fuck you, for existing in the first place

and who am I, that I should be vying for your touch

who am I, I bet you cant even tell me that much
