Alanis Morissette - 1974 lyrics

Alanis Morissette & Ryan Adams

Ryan :

I was born in 1974

on a calm meticulous street

someplace 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

Ryan & Alanis :

So leave me alone

So leave me alone

So leave me alone

I'm busy breaking bones

Alanis :

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 unthreatened

Ryan & Alanis :

So leave me alone

So leave me alone

So leave me aloneAlanis Morissette - 1974 - http://motolyrics.com/alanis-morissette/1974-lyrics.html

I'm busy breaking bones

Ryan :

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

Alanis :

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

Ryan & Alanis :

So leave us alone

So leave us alone

So leave us alone

We're busy being grown

Alanis :
