4
the air comes off the ocean
5
the city smells fishy
6
the air is full of fish and mystery
7
whispering who, what, when
8
I am warning you I am weightless
9
and the wind is always shifting
10
so don't hang anything on me
11
if you ever want to see it again
12
I am telling you I'm different than you
13
think I am
14
and you can dangle your carrot
15
but I ain't gunna reach for it
16
cuz I need both my hands
17
to play my guitar
18
and life is a sleezy stranger
19
who looks vaguely familiar
20
flirting with a bimbo named disaster
21
at the end of the bar
22
and I am telling you that I am different
23
than you are
24
at night when you're asleep
25
self-hatred's going to creep in
26
and try to blame it on the devil
27
the one who's bed you sleep in
28
and don't tell me what they did to you
29
as though you had no choice
30
tell me, isn't that your picture?
31
isn't that your voice?
32
if you don't live what you sing about
33
your mirror is going to find out
34
oh yeah
35
I'd like to go to all the pretty parties
36
where all the pretty people go
37
and I ain't really all that pretty
38
but nobody will know
39
cuz everybody loves you
40
when you're a star
41
and nobody questions
42
what it takes to go that far
43
and life is a sleezy stranger
44
and this is his favorite bar
45
no I don't prefer obscurity
46
but I'm an idealistic girl
47
and I wouldn't work for you
48
no matter what you paid
49
and I may not be able
50
to change the whole fucking world
51
but I could be the million
52
that you never made
53
oh yeah
54
I could be the million that you never made
55
I could be the million that you'll never make
56
You're looking at the million that you'll never make
