Pray For Peace - Lyrics by Alanis Morissette


Lyrics
I pray for peace.
They require me to kick into high gear.
We may as well have our ph.d.'s.
Might we compose
Was never taken into account.I pray they let out or talk it out.
She would give me a wink across the room.I would've made a really good lawyer.I had a really good strategy
For putting things back on the wall of the world.
Thank God it was the goddamned wall.I would have to hide all my valuables.
Who would calm my mother down? Who would calm me down once I talked her through it? My mother and I were the official peacemakers.
It was a full-time job.I would send my mother directly to bed, yeah
Don't collect 200.
We'd talk about it till 5 a.m.
When I'd come visiting her 5 years later.
We would pray for peace.
It was most comfortable and familiar.
