[00:00.070]I was reading Slim Aarons and I got to thinking that I thought
[00:09.300]Maybe I'd get less stressed if I was tested less like
[00:15.520]All of these debutantes
[00:18.340]Smiling for miles in pink dresses and high heels on white yachts
[00:26.560]But I'm not baby I'm not
[00:33.580]No I'm not that I'm not
[00:41.360]I've been tearing around in my ******* nightgown
[00:46.010]24/7 Sylvia Plath
[00:50.590]Writing in blood on the walls
[00:53.270]'Cause the ink in my pen don't work in my notepad
[00:59.540]Don't ask if I'm happy you know that I'm not
[01:03.259]But at best I can say I'm not sad
[01:08.069]'Cause hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[01:16.860]Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[01:25.799]
[01:42.709]I had fifteen-year dances
[01:45.019]Church basement romances yeah I've got
[01:51.459]Spilling my guts with the Bowery Bums
[01:55.459]Is the only love I've ever known
[02:00.189]Except for the stage which I also call home when I'm not
[02:08.469]Servin' up God in a burnt coffee pot for the triad
[02:16.930]Hello it's the most famous woman you know on the iPad
[02:25.539]Calling from beyond the grave I just wanna say "Hi Dad"
[02:33.690]I've been tearing up town in my ******* white gown
[02:38.330]Like a godd**n near sociopath
[02:43.000]Shaking my a*s is the only thing that's
[02:46.849]Got this black narcissist off my back
[02:51.389]She couldn't care less and I never cared more
[02:55.400]So there's no more to say about that
[02:59.960]Except hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[03:08.469]Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman with my past
[03:17.159]There's a new revolution a loud evolution that I saw
[03:26.110]Born of confusion and quiet collusion of which mostly I've known
[03:34.860]A modern day woman with a weak constitution 'cause I've got
[03:43.550]Monsters still under my bed that I could never fight off
[03:52.340]A gatekeeper carelessly dropping the keys on my nights off
[04:00.310]I've been tearing around in my ******* nightgown
[04:04.719]24/7 Sylvia Plath
[04:09.490]Writing in blood on your walls
[04:12.120]'Cause the ink in my pen don't look good in my pad
[04:18.040]They write that I'm happy they know that I'm not
[04:22.170]But at best you can see I'm not sad
[04:26.990]But hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[04:35.690]Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[04:44.350]Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[04:52.569]But I have it
[04:56.670]Yeah I have it
[05:01.069]Yeah I have it
[05:05.050]I have
[05:08.439]
