Текст песни:

I once had a girl, or should i say, she once had me
She showed me her room, is not it good, norwegian wood
She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere
So i looked around and i noticed there wasn′t a chair
I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine
We talked until two and then she said, it′s time for bed
She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh
I told her i didn′t and crawled off to sleep in the bath
And when i awoke i was alone, this bird had flown
So I lit a fire, is not it good, norwegian wood

Текст песни:

I′ve seen them kneel with baited breath for the ritual
I′ve watched this experience raise them to pseudo higher levels
I′ve watched them leave their families in pursuit of your nirvana
I′ve seen them coming to line up from Switzerland and America

How long will this take baba
How long have we been sleeping
Do you see me hanging on to
Every word you say
How soon will I be holy
How much will this cost guru
How much longer ′til you
Completely absolve me

I′ve seen them give their drugs up in place of makeshift alters
I′ve heard them chanting kali kali frantically
I′ve heard them rotely repeats your teachings with elitism
I′ve seen them boasting robes and foreign sandalwood beads
I′ve seen them overlooking god in their own essence
I′ve seen their upward glances in hopes of instant salvation
I′ve seen their righteousness mixed without loving compassion
I′ve watched you smile as the students bow to kiss your feet

Give me strength all knowing one
How long ′til enlightenment
How much longer ′til you
Completely absolve me

@ Alanis Morissette

Текст песни:

You are the original template.
You are the original exemplary.
How seen were you, actually?
How revered were you (honestly) at the time?

Why pleased with your low maintenance?
Where was your ally, your partner in feminine crime?

Oh, mother, who′s your buddy?
Oh, mother, who′s got your back?
The heart of the house,
The heart of the house.
All hail the goddess.

You were ′good ′ol′
You were count on′er til four am
You saw me run from the house
In the snow melodramatically.

Oh, mother, who′s your sister?
Oh, mother, who′s your friend?
The heart of the house.
The heart of the house.
All hail the goddess.

We left the men and we went for a walk in the gatineaus
And talked like women,
Like women to women would.
Womyn to womyn would Where did you get that from?
Must′ve been your father, your dad.

I got it from you, I got it from you.

Do you see yourself in my gypsy garage sale ways?
In my fits of laughter?
In my tinkerbell tendencies?
In my lack of color coordination?

@ Alanis Morissette

Текст песни:

You′ll complete me right? then my life can finally begin
I′ll be worthy right? only when you realize the gem I am?

But this won′t work now the way it once did
And I won′t keep it up even though I would love to
Once I know who I′m not then I′ll know who I am
But I know I won′t keep on playing the victim

These precious illusions in my head did not let me down when I was defenseless
And parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends

This ring will me yet as will you knight in shining armor
This pill will help me yet as will these boys gone through like water

But this won′t work as well as the way it once did
Cuz I want to decide between survival and bliss
And though I know who I′m not I still don′t know who I am
But I know I won′t keep on playing the victim

These precious illusions in my head did not let me down when I was a kid
And parting with them is like parting with a childhood best friend

I′ve spent so long firmly looking outside me
I′ve spent so much time living in survival mode

@ Alanis Morissette

Текст песни:

My foundation was rocked my tried and true way to deal was to vanish
My departures were old I stood in the room shaking in my boots
At that particular time love had challenged me to stay
At that particular moment I knew not run away again
That particular month I was ready to investigate with you
At that particular time

We thought a break would be good for four months we sat and vacillated
We thought a small time apart would clear up the doubts that were abounding
At that particular time love encouraged me to wait
At that particular moment it helped me to be patient
That particular month we needed time to marinate in what us meant

I′ve always wanted for you what you′ve wanted for yourself
And yet I wanted to save us high water or hell
And I kept on ignoring the ambivalence you felt
And in the meantime I lost myself
In the meantime I lost myself
I′m sorry I lost myselfaa. i am

You knew you needed more time time spent alone with no distraction
You felt you needed to fly solo and high to define what you wanted
At that particular love encouraged me to leave
At that particular moment I knew staying with you meant deserting me
That particular month was harder than you′d believe but I still left
At that particular time

@ Alanis Morissette

Текст песни:

I want you to know that I′m happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both
An older version of me
Is she perverted like me
Would she go down on your in a theater
Does she speak eloquently
And would she have your baby
I′m sure she′d make a really excellent mother

′Cause the love that you gave that we made
Wasn′t able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you′d hold me
Until you died, ′til you died
But you′re still alive

CHORUS:
And I′m here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It′s not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

You seem very well, things look peaceful
I′m not quite as well, I thought you should know
Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity
I hate to but you in the middle of dinner
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
Are you thinking of me when you fuck her

′Cause the love that you gave that we made
Wasn′t able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you′d hold me
Until you died, ′til you died
But you′re sill alive

REPEAT CHORUS

′Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me
And I′m not gonna fade
As soon as you close your eyes and you know it
And every time I scratch my nails down someone else′s back
I hope you feel it... well can you feel it

REPEAT CHORUS

@ Alanis Morissette

Текст песни:

Why do I feel it′s all up to me to see that
Everything′s right and it′s how it should be
Why don′t they just leave me alone
I′ve got to prove I can
Little girl with stars in her eyes they′ve
Got her all figured out and there′s nowhere
To hide why can′t they all see who I am
When will they understand

It may take some time they don′t know how
It feels because they can′t read my mind
They always say I′m too young and they
Feel they should help me
But I can make it all alone out here on my own

Every day I feel so in demand and all I
Wish I could find is a place I can land
One day I′ll feel comfort inside cause I′ll
Know who I am

I can hold the line if I know in the end
That I won′t be left behind I don′t regret
What I′ve done I don′t think you can blame me
Now I′m standin′ all alone out here on my own

I′m not thinking ′bout leavin′ home
But I need to be on my own
Doesn′t mean I have a heart of stone
I won′t even ask them why
I can′t ever let them see me cry
Here I′m standing all alone out here on my own...
Out here on my own

Feeling lost in a world full of lies
I can′t help thinkin′ that love is just
Passin′ me by Hold on to what I believe
And keep an open hand

Can I have it all if there′s no one to
Turn to when I stumble and fall
Is there a secret I need because no one
Has told me - all alone

It may take some time cause I know
How it feels to have a lot on your mind
I′ll never feel all alone cause!
Know that I have me
Now I can make it all alone out here on my own

@ Alanis Morissette

Текст песни:

A million times in a million ways I will try to change you
A million months and a million days I′ll try to somehow convince you

I have waited for you and adjusted for you and I′m done
I have deferred to you and enabled you and I′m done

You′re too young or you′re too old or you′re simply not inclined
You′re asleep or you′re withholding be that my cue to crave you

Several times in several ways I′ll try to squeeze love from you
Several hours and several ways I′ll feast on scraps thrown from you

I have bent for you and I′ve deprived for you and I′m done
I have depressed for you and contorted for you and I′m done
I have stifled for you and I′ve compromised for you and I′m done
I have silenced for you and sacrificed for you and I′m done

It won′t be long before I am reclaimed
It won′t take long and I′ll be on path again
It won′t be easy for us to disengage
I′m at the end of self deprivation stage

You′re afraid of every woman afraid of your inner workings
You cringe at the thought of living under the same roof as me god and everything

A million times and a million ways I′ve tried to alter to match you
Several times every several days I′ve tried to uncrush on you

@ Alanis Morissette

Текст песни:

Give me what I′m askin′ for
Stop bringin′ me down or I′ll slam the door
You′re getting out of line with the Beverly Boys
You start makin′ the moves they start makin′
The noise

You know you′re not getting lucky
Livin′ the life because you′re movin′ to
The jungle and paying the price
You′re livin′ right along with the
New Brady Bunch

Have your people call my people and let′s do lunch
Reaction to the actin there′s more to me
Than human flesh
I′ve had enough distractions I need some tenderness

CHORUS:
Human Tough I gotta know it′s real
I′m tired of people sellin′ their sex appeal
Human Touch I need human love
No imitations of oh baby

A bird in the busy is worth two in
The street - you know the kind of people
Never want to meet you′re sitting really
Pretty in your swimming pool with your
Rock ′n roll tan you keep thinkin′ you′re
Cool

You know you can′t reach Jesus on your
Portable phone he ain′t speakin′ to the people
In their Hollywood homes with a toot
In your snoot and your loot to boot
You don′t even give a hoot about the
Minds you pollute

Lookin′ for deceptions there′s more to me
Than human flesh I′m finding new
Directions I need some tenderness!

CHORUS

I′m lookin′ for the real thing there′s more
To me than human flesh I′m gonna
Stop at nothin′

CHORUS

Текст песни:

Please be philosophical
Please be tapped into your femininity
Please be able to take the wheel from me
Please be crazy and curious

Papa love your princess so that she will find loving princes familiar
Papa cry for your princess so that she will find gentle princes familiar

Please be a sexaholic
Please be unpredictably miserable
Please be self absorbed much (not the good kind)
Please be addicted to some substance

Papa listen to your princess so that she will find attentive princes familiar
Papa hear your princess so that she will find curious princes familiar
Please be the jerk of my knee I′ve fit you always
You finish my sentences I think I love you
What is your name again no matter i′m guessing your thoughts again correctly
And I love the way
You press my buttons so much sometimes I could strangle you

Papa laugh with your princess so that she will find funny princes familiar
Papa respect your princess so that she will find respectful princes familiar

Please be strangely enigmatic
Please be just like my

@ Alanis Morissette

Текст песни:

These are the thoughts that go through my head
In my backyard on a sunday afternoon
When I have the house to myself and I am not
Expending all that energy on fighting
With my boyfriend
Is he the one that I will marry
And why is it so hard to be objective about
Myself why do I feel cellularly alone
Am I supposed to live in this crazy city
Can blindly continued fear - induced regurtitated life - denying tradition
Be overcome

Where does the money go that I send
To those in need, if we have so much why do some people have nothing
Still why do I feel frantic when I first wake up in the morning
Why do you say you are spiritual, yet you treat people like shit

How can you say you′re close to God, and yet you talk behind
My back as though I′m not a part of you, why do I say I′m fine
When it′s obvious I′m not, why′s it so hard to tell you what I want
Why can′t you just read my mind?

Why do I fear that the quieter I am
The less you will listen
Why do I care whether you like me or not
Why′s it so hard for me to be angry
Why is it such work to stay conscious and so easy to get stuck
And not the other way around

Will I ever move back to Canada
Can I be with a lover with whom I am a student
And a master, oh why am I encouraged to shut my mouth
When it gets too close to home, why cannot I
Live in the moment

@ Alanis Morissette

Текст песни:

And there are no strings attached.

You owe me nothing for giving the love that I give.
You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have.
I give you thanks for receiving, it′s my privilege,
And you owe me nothing in return.

You can ask for space for yourself and only yourself and I′ll grant it. You can ask for freedom as
well or time to travel and you′ll have it. You can ask to live by yourself or love someone else and
I′ll support it. You can ask for anything you want anything at all and I′ll understand it.

And there are no strings attached.

You owe me nothing for giving the love that I give.
You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have.
I give you thanks for receiving, it′s my privilege,
And you owe me nothing in return.

I bet you′re wondering when
THE NEXT PAY BACK YOU WILL EVENTUALLY DROP.
I bet you′re wondering when my conditional police will force you to cough up. I bet you′re wondering
HOW FAR YOU HAVE NOW DANCED YOU′RE WAY BACK INTO DEAD. This is the only kind of love As I understand
it that there really is.

You can express your deepest of truths even if it means I′ll lose you and I′ll hear it. You can fall
into the abyss on your way to your bliss I′ll empathize with. You can say that you have to skip town
to chase your passion and I′ll hear it. You can even hit rock bottom have a mid - life crisis and
I′ll hold it.

And there are no strings attached

You owe me nothing for giving the love that I give
You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have
I give you thanks for receiving, it′s my privilege
And you owe me nothing in return

You owe me nothing for giving the love that I give
You owe me nothing for caring the way that I have
I give you thanks for receiving, it′s my privilege
And you owe me nothing in return

Текст песни:

As we were talking outside it was cold
We were shivering yet warmed by the subject matter
My wife is in the next room we′ve been having troubles
Please don′t tell her or anyone
But I need to talk to somebody
You said wouldn′t it be a shame if I knew
How great I was five minutes before I′d died I′d be filled
With such regret before I took my last breath
And I said you′re willing to tell me this now
And you′re not going to die anytime soon
And I sadi I haven′t been eating chicken or meat or anything and you said yes
But you′ve been wearing leather and laughed and said we′re at the top of the food chain
And yes you′re still a fine woman and I cringed
I was hoping I was hoping we could heal each other
I was hoping I was hoping we could be raw together
We left the restaurant where the head waiter (in his 60′s) said
Goodbye sir thankyou for your business sir
You′re successful and established sir
And we like the frequency with which you dine here sir and your money
And when i walked by they said thank you too dear
I was all pigtails and cords
And there was a day when I would′ve said something
Like hey dude I could buy and sell this place so kiss it
I too once thought I was owed something
I was hoping I was hoping we could challenge each other
I was hoping I was hoping we could crack each other up
I too thought that when proved wrong I lost somehow
I too once thought life was cruel
It′s a cycle really you think i′m withdrawing and guilt tripping you
I think you′re insensitive
And I don′t feel heard and I said do you belive we are fundamentally judgemental?
Fundamentally evil?
And you said yes I said I don′t believe in revenge in right or worng good or bad you said
Well what about the man that I saw handcuffed in the emergency room
Bleeding after beating his kid
And she threw a shoe at his head
I think what he did was wrong and I would′ve had a hard time feeling compassion for him
I had to watch my tone for fear of having you feel judged.
I was hoping I was hoping we could dance together
I was hoping I was hoping we could be creamy together

@ Alanis Morissette

Текст песни:

I′m having dreams in the night of you baby
And Sigmund Freud would have thought I was crazy
I wonder why you′ve become an obsession
All I know is that I need to have your big bad love
Big bad love (3k)
You keep on lovin′ and lyin′
You′ve turning me into a fool babe
But I′m not screamin′ or cryin′
There′s better things we have to do baby

It takes a lot for me to truly believe
That you could love me unconditionally
And I′m terrified of taking a chance
If you′re not ready to believe in romance

Who... I wonder why I am so unrelentless
There′s nothing that I can do to prevent this
And the dream I am not apprehensive
All I know is that I need to have your...

CHORUS:
Big bad love
I need a love with an attitude
Big bad love
The only kind that I want from you
Big bad love
I need it from you so urgently
Big bad love... need it baby yeah yeah yeah

I′m not avoidin′ your lovin′
′Cause I can afford to be blue babe
I keep on pushin′ and shovin′
I can′t get enough out of you baby

I don′t believe your blood is bad to the bone
′Cause then you′re different when we′re here all alone
And if you knew the game I wanted to play
Now would you say the words I want you to say... who

I′m am so relentless... I can′t prevent this... I am not apprehensive
All I know is that I need to have your big bad love
(Ad - lib)

Текст песни:

Entertain me for the tenth hour in a row again
Anesthetize me with your gossip and many random anecdotes
And fill every hour with activity or ear candy
Drop me off at intersections in any city metropolitan

And keep me in this state
And keep me purgatorying
And sing me back to sleep
This is far more than I had bargained for

Start every week with a break - neck urgent design
And end every speed day with my briefcase representing free time
Spending my fruits my purchases become my lifeline
Please give my love to my family
I′ll doubtfully be home at Christmas time

Don′t disturb me in this state
Please leave me purgatorying
I′ll be damned if I′m to wake
This is far more than I am equipped for

I′ve held you up like a deity
Like you′re the sole owner of wings
This unrequited tunnel vision
And I wonder why I′ve not been writing

Please keep me in this state
Please keep me purgatorying
Please rock me back to sleep
This love is more than - than I have bargained for

I′ll be damned if I′m to wake
This is far more than I′m equipped for
