She Gave Me A Wink (Pray For Peace)
Alanis Morissette · Other Songs - Alanis Morissette
They require me to kick into high gear
We may as well have our Phd'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 have made a really good lawyer
I had a really good strategy for putting things back
on the wall of the hoser
Thank God it was the God dammed 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 peace makers
It was a full time job
I would send my mother directly to bed do not collect 200
We'd talk about it till 5am when I'd come visiting her 5 years later
We would pray for peace
It was most comfortable and familiar
