Red Letter Year Ani DiFranco

New years eve we dropped mushrooms
And danced around the house
Making music with everything that we found
Incantation replaced resolution and we
Vowed to allow each perfection that we could be
And the goddesses sent word that this would be a red letter year
They didn't mention how much shit was gonna change around here
It's just as well we weren't swollen with unfocused dread
We had visions of sugarplums dancing in our heads
Dancing in our heads

First you go under and then you coming up gives you the bends
And when you break the surface
And all you see is your friends
So you grab your purple crayon
And flesh out the picture behind
And finally the whole world is made of one unbroken line
One unbroken line

When you wake up sick as a dog
With dull eyes and really bad hair
Standing under a lit sign with the words "on air"
And the water is rising
It's coming in everywhere
Just remember you are there
You are always, always there
