Artist: Alanis Morissette Album: N/A (0000) Title: 1974
Lyrics 1974I was born in 1974 On a calm, meticulous street Some place in the sun Oh, the air was sweet And enough Lights sprang sparks through the window of the room Not as raw to a ridiculous tune Slightly out-of-key in the mother hour
So, leave us alone So, leave me alone So, leave me alone I'm busy breaking bones
I was born in 1974 In a breached feet-first way My twin opened the door My very first dose of chivalry I was dawned princess potential potent With gold star and matching impression Big between two doors Small and loved and proud and un-threatened
So, leave me alone So, leave me alone So, leave me alone I'm busy breaking bones
I bet you were strong When you should have been weak Like a dam that wanted to break I wish I were the stones Your river learned to roam In whispering gaze
You were told in a kind North Carolinian way To slow down, back up, or be hated Thank God you did not And thank God you did An angel either way
So, leave us alone So, leave us alone So, leave us alone We're busy being grown
Grown Grown Grown Grown
