Not A Pretty Girl
Ani Difranco
I am not a pretty girl That is not what I do I ain't no damsel in distress And I don't need to be rescued So put me down, punk Maybe you'd prefer a maiden fair Isn't there a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere? I am not an angry girl But it seems like I've got everyone fooled Every time I say something they find heard to hear They chalk it up to my anger And never to their own fear And imagine you're a girl Just trying to finally come clean Knowing full well they'd prefer you were dirty And smiling And I am sorry I am not a maiden fair I am not a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere And generally my generation Wouldn't be caught dead working for the man And generally I agree with them Trouble is you've gotta have yourself an alternative plan And I have earned my disillusionment I have been working all of my life And I am a patriot I have been fighting the good fight And what if there are no damsels in distress? What if I knew that, and I called your bluff? Don't you think every kitten figures out how to get down Whether or not you ever show up? I am not a pretty girl I don't want to be a pretty girl No, I want to be more than a pretty girl90s 90s Rock absolute favorite acoustic alicia alt-folk alternative Alternative Folk alternative punk AM Gold ani ani difranco ani is my heroine anti-folk Awesome beautiful best mouth in rock best song ever cant help but sing along chick rock classic rock crash ost danny says yay essential ani extreme poetry Faves Favorite favorite songs Favorite tracks angry favorites favourite favourite tracks female female singer-songwriter female singer-songwriters female vocalist female vocalists female vocals feminazi feminism feminist feminist folk flawless flawless songwriter folk folk rock folk-rock for rainy days fun Funked Up funky gender girl music that rocks girl power girls good good when I am bitter gotanygoodmusic Great Lyricist halftoned singles club hard rock hi fidelity hurina Icons indie indie rock lesbian rock like no other live look for artist loveit Mellow music for the revolution Musical orgasm my brother listens to this my soundtrack nice nait nostalgia not a pretty girl nuggets personal theme song political quittenlikoer raar righteous babes ro-live rock seen live selezione 1 singer songwriter singer-songwriter songs I loved in high school songs i sing in the shower Songs to cry to Songs to sing at the top of my songs you must sing along with visionary white stripes women Women Music
