Ani Difranco - Origami lyrics

Words and music by Ani DiFranco

I am an all powerful amazon warrior

Not just some sniveling girl

So no matter what I think I need

You know I can't possibly

Have a need in this world

Come and come for that sweet sweetness

I'll be your never ending vending machine

I could never need to be alone

Never need to be my own

As much as you need your queen

I know men are delicate

Origami creatures

Who need women to unfold them

Hold them when they cry

But I am tired of being your savior

And I am tired of telling you why

And since when did this me me me

Become the be all and end all of me

Oh listen to you talk to me

Long time love has got to breathe, babe

You got to let it ebb and flow

If you want a ball to bounce

You gotta let it go

Just let it go

I know men are delicate

Origami creatures

Who need women to unfold them

Hold them when they cry

But I am tired of being your savior

And I am tired of telling you why
