Ani Difranco - Letter to a John текст песни

Dont ask me why Im crying

Im not going to tell you whats wrong

Im just gonna sit on your lap

For five dollars a song

I want you to pay me for my beauty

I think its only right

cause I have been paying for it

All of my life

Im gonna take the money I make

Im gonna take the money I make

Im gonna take the money I make

And Im gonna go away...

We barely have time to react in this world

Let alone rehearse

And I dont think Im better than you

But I dont think that Im worse

Women learn to be women

And men learn to be men

And I dont blame it all on you

But I dont want to be your friend

Im gonna take the money I make

Im gonna take the money I make

Im gonna take the money I make

And Im gonna go away...

I was eleven years old

He was as old as my dad

And he took something from me

I didnt even know that I had

So dont tell me about decency

Dont tell me about pride

Just give me something for my trouble

cause this time, its not a free ride

Im gonna take the money I make

Im gonna take the money I make

Im gonna take the money I make

And Im gonna go away...

Dont ask me why Im crying

Im not going to tell you whats wrong

Im just gonna sit on your lap

For five dollars a songs

I want you to pay me for my beauty

I think its only right

cause I have been paying for it

All of my life

Now I just wanna take

And Im just gonna take

Im gonna take

And Im gonna go away
