Difranco Ani Shameless Lyrics

Shameless Lyrics

i cannot name this
i cannot explain this
and i really don't want
to
just call me shameless
i can't even slow this down
late alone stop
this
and i keep looking around
but i cannot top this
if i had any
sense
i guess i'd fear this
i guess i'd keep it down
so no one would
hear this
i guess i'd shut my mouth
and rethink a minute
but i can't
shut it now
'cuz there's somthing in it
we're in a room without a
door
and i am sure without a doubt
they're gonna wanna know
how we got
in here
and they're gonna wanna know
how we plan to get out
we better
have a good explanation
for all the fun that we had
'cuz they are coming
for us, babe
and they are going to be mad
yeah, they're going to be mad
at us
this is my skeleton
this is the skin it's in
that is, according
to light
and gravity
i'll take off my disguise
the mask you met me
in
'cuz i got something
for you to see
just gimme your
skeleton
give me the skin it's in
according to me
i never avert my
eyes
i never compromise
so never mind
the poetry
i gotta cover my
butt 'cuz i covet
another man's wife
i gotta divide my emotions
into
wrong and right
then i get to see how close i can get to it
without
giving in
then i get to rub up against it
till i break the skin
rub up
against it
till i break the skin
they're gonna be mad at us
they're
gonna be mad at me and you
they're gonna be mad at us
and all the
thinks
we wanna do
just please don't name this
please don't explain
this
just blame it all on me
say i was shameless
say i couldn't slow
it down
let alone stop it
and say you just hung around
'cuz you
couldn't top it
