The Big Picture

Tori Amos · Y Kant Tori Read [1988]

Someone smashed my window

Broke into my brand new car

Last night.

Caught my boyfriend lookin

At another slender

Pair of thighs

Gotta make more money

Gotta get gotta get

There faster than the rest

Knock 'em off the ladder

If they even seem to

Stand a chance.



The big picture

Gotta big white cloud

The big picture

Is starin' at me

Starin' at me



Why do I feel so threatened

That somebody else will

Take what's mine

Babe it's only rented

No one really owns the

Merchandise.

What about what I want

Somehow it got lost somewhere

Inside

My mother's on my case

I told her it's my life

Well, she just died.



The big picture

Gotta big white cloud

The big picture

Starin' at me

The big picture

On a big blank wall

The big picture

Is starin' at me

Starin' at me



When I can see

I'll try again

I've got my paints



The big picture

Gotta big white cloud

The big picture

Starin' at me

The big picture

On a big blank wall

The big picture

Is starin' at me

Starin' at me
