If It Isnt Her - Lyrics by Difranco Ani


Lyrics
standing like john wayneshe is full framedshe is center stageand my imagination israttling in its cage
I didn't really noticewhen everything else disappearedbut as far as I'm concernedif it isn't herit isn't hereshe says do I know you
I say well, no, not biblicallybut I've been waiting for you comeand talk to me
I have been playingtoo many of those boy girl gamesshe says honey you are safe herethis is a girl girl thing
I told him I loved himso he thought I'd roll over and play deadhe was god's gift to hypocrisywith weak knees and a big fat headshe says honey don't tell methat old storyyou are boring mejust tell me do you like metell me what you're gonna donow that you're freestanding like john wayneshe is full framedshe is center stageand my imaginationis rattling in its cage
I didn't really noticewhen everything else disappearedbut as far as I'm concernedif it isn't herit isn't hereas far as I'm concernedif it isn't herit isn't here
