מילים לשיר Deep Dish – Ani Difranco

cold and drizzly night in chicago's deep dish
fluorescent light of the bathroom
see an eyelash on my cheek
shows my hands as they are
pick it off and make a wish
wind at the windows
and walk back out into the bar
the waitress wields the weight
of her tray around her palm
neon lights the patterned pane
and lights his cigarette again
the doorman cups his hand this is only a possibility in a world of possibilities
and the rain marches on
there are obviously there are many possibilities
before long there will be short
ranging from small to large
before short there was nothing
when there was nothing there was always the possibility
of something becoming what it is
to say something clever
don't even bother trying
clever is as clever does
i'm looking for a sign
no matter what it says
says you're for real this time
but i don't trust what's in your head
i walk up to the bar
and point to the top shelf
and then i throw my head back
i raise a toast to all our saviors
and laugh at myself
each so badly behaved
is the one that they saved
it's too bad that their world there's a spider spinning cobwebs
from your elbow to the table
while my eyes ride the crowd
in a secret rodeo
lift my watch up to the light
say oh, look, i have to go i smile with my mouth
now is when it's gotta be
now you got to dance with me,
'cuz i can't wait for the dance floor to fill in
if you want to dance with me,
i'll show you how it's gonna be
cuz i can't wait for the band to begin.
