I like it    I don't like it

I am a woman of heart and mind

With time on her hands

No child to raise

You come to me like a little boy

And I give you my scorn and my praise

You think Im like your mother

Or another lover or your sister

Or the queen of our dreams

Or just another silly girl

When love makes a fool of me


After the rush when you come back down

Youre always disappointed

Nothing seems to keep you high

Drive your bargains

Push your papers

Win your medals

f**k your strangers

Dont it leave you on the empty side

Im looking for affection and respect

A little passion

And you want stimulation-nothing more

Thats what I think

But you know Ill try to be there for you

When your spirits start to sink


All this talk about holiness now

It must be the start of the latest style

Is it all books and words

Or do you really feel it?

Do you really laugh?

Do you really care?

Do you really smile

When you smile?

You criticize and you flatter

You imitate the best

And the rest you memorize

You know the times you impress me most

Are the times when you dont try

When you dont even try
