Ani Difranco Imperfectly What If No One's Watching If my life were a movie There would be a sunset And the camera would pan away But the sky is just a little sister Tagging along behind the buildings Trying to imitate their grey The little boys are breaking bottles Along the sidewalk The big boys, too The girls are hanging out at the candy store Pumping quarters into the phone 'cause they don't want to go home And i think, What if no one's watching What it when we're dead, we're just dead What if it's just us down here What if god ain't looking down What if he's looking up instead If my life were a movie I would light a cigarette And the smoke would curl around my face Everything i do would be interesting I'd play the good guy In every scene But i always feel i have to Take a stand And there's always someone on hand To hate me for standing there I always feel i have to open my mouth And every time i do I offend someone Somewhere But what What if no one's watching What if when we're dead, we're just dead What if there's no time to lose What if there's things we gotta do Things that need to be said You know i can't apologize For everything i know I mean you don't have to agree with me But once you get me going You better just let me go We have to be able to criticize What we love Say what we have to say 'cause if you're not trying to make something better As far as i can tell You're just in the way I mean what What if no one's watching What if when we're dead We're just dead What if it's just us down here What if god is just an idea Someone put in your head I mean what What if no one's watching What if no one's watching... |
