Ani Difranco - If He Tries Anything lyrics

I'm invincible

So are you

We do all the things

They say we can't do

We walk around

In the middle of the night

And if it's too far to walk

We just hitch a ride

We got rings of dirt

Around our necks

We talk like auctioneers

And we bounce like checks

We smell like shit

Still, when we walk down the street

All the boys line up

To throw themselves at our feet

I say I think he likes you

You say I think he do too

Go and get him girl

Before he gets you

I'll be watching you

From the wings

I will come to your rescue

If he tries anything

It's a long long road

It's a big big world

We are wise wise women

We are giggling girls

We both carry a smile

To show when we're pleased

We both carry a switchblade

In our sleeves

Tell you one thing

I'm gonna make noise when I go down

For ten square blocks

They're gonna know I died

All the goddesses will come up

To the ripped screen door

And say,

What do you want, dear?

And I'll say,

I want inside

I say I think he likes you

You say I think he do too

Go and get him girl

Before he gets you

I'll be watching you

From the wings

I will come to your rescue

If he tries anything
