Ani Difranco - Pixie lyrics

Your rating:

i'm a pixie

i'm a paperdoll

i'm a cartoon

i'm a chipper cheerful free for all

and i light up a room

i'm the color me happy girl

miss live and let live

and when they're out for blood

i always give



the man behind the counter looks like he's got

a half a dozen places he'd rather be

and furthermore it looks like he's preparedd

to take it all out on me

buddy, i don't really care what your problem is

just don't make it mine

come on kids, let's all hold hands

and pretend we're having a good time



maybe you don't like your job

maybe you didn't get enough sleep

well, nobody likes their job

nobody got enough sleep

maybe you just had

the worst day of your life

but, you know, there's no escape

and there's no excuse

so just suck up and be nice



all the privileged white kids on tv

playing at death

brandishing their cold cuts 

with their whostly makup 

and their heroin breath

and all the little fishes are flapping wildly

on their hooks

while all the top critics find great meaning 

in the telephone book



the little emperor he has no clothes

so he can't come out to play

and besides which life is suffering

and he likes it that way

and the little guy is not so friendly

but you know life has been cruel

so wipe that smile off your face baby

and try to be cool



maybe you don't like your job

maybe you didn't get enough sleep

well, nobody likes their job

nobody got enough sleep

maybe you just had

the worst day of your life

but, you know, there's no escape

and there's no excuse

so just suck up and be nice



yeah, i would like to perfect the art

of being studiously aloof

like life is just a boring chore

and i am living proof

i could join forces with an army

of ornery hipsters

but then i guess i'd be out of a job

so i guess that's out of the picture



cuz i'm a pixie

i'm a paperdoll

i'm a cartoon

i'm a chipper cheerful free for all

and i light up a room

i'm the color me happy girl

miss live and let live

and when they're out for blood

i always give
