Untouchable Face

Ani DiFranco · Canon [2007]

Think I'm going for a walk now. I feel a little unsteady.

Don't want nobody to follow me. . . 'cept maybe you.



I could make you happy you know if you weren't already.

I could do a lot of things. . .and I do.



To tell you the truth I prefer the worst of you.

Too bad you had to have a better half.



She's not really my type, but I think you two are forever

And I hate to say it, but you're perfect together



So fuck you

And your untouchable face

fuck you

For existing in the first place



And who am I

That I should be vying for your touch

Said who am I

I bet you can't even tell me that much



Two-thirty in the morning and my gas tank will be empty soon

Neon sign on the horizon Rubbing elbows with the moon



It's A safe haven of sleepless Where the deep fryer's always on

radio is counting down the top twenty country songs



And out on the porch the fly strip is waving like a flag in the wind

You know I don't look forward to seeing you again



You'll look like a photograph of yourself taken from far far away

And I won't know what to do. And I won't know what to say



Except fuck you

And your untouchable face

fuck you

For existing in the first place



And who am I

That I should be vying for your touch

Said who am I

I bet you can't even tell me that much



I see you and I'm so perplexed. What was I thinking?

What will I think of next? Where can I hide?



In the back room there's a lamp that hangs over the pool table

And when the fan is on it sways, gently side to side



And There's a changing constellation of balls as we are playing

I see Orion and say nothing the only thing I can think of saying



Is fuck you

And your untouchable face

fuck you

For existing in the first place



who am I

That I should be vying for your touch

Said who am I

I bet you can't even tell me that much



Said who am I

I bet you can't even tell me that much

Said who am I

Sombody just tell me that much



Said who am I

Somebody just tell me that much

Said who am I

Somebody just tell me that much

Said who am I

Somebody, somebody just tell me that much. . .
