מילים לשיר Egos Like Hairdos – Ani Difranco

I saw on the poster
my name was printed
just a little bit smaller
I can tell you need to stand
just a little bit taller
no one ever talks about it
but no one can disguise
that's hanging behind their eyes
the cloud of competition
in this bar than there is beer
there's more bad blood
and it's subtle but it still sucks
and I want out of here we got egos like hairdos
they're different every day
depending on how we slept the night before
they told me you wanted to play last
depending on the demons that are at our door every profession has its system of castes
so they reverse the order we go on
and then you stand at the bar and you talk through my songs
we've got egos like hairdos
depending on how we slept the night before
they're different every day
depending on the demons that are at our door everybody loves the underdog
but no one wants to be him
the press will fatten you up
and then they'll dig their teeth in
it's hard to support them
it's cool to discover someone
everyone is playing life
like it's some stupid sport
we got egos like hairdos
they're different every day
depending on how we slept the night before depending on the demons that are at our door
I got my kitchen stocked there're no demons here
I got my door unlocked
and I don't really care
whose name is printed in bigger type
I ain't no saint
you know I live in a world full of hope
not a world full of hype
I help myself to what I need
but I help other people too
y'know I sleep soundly.
