All I Really Want – Alanis Morissette
Do I stress you out
My sweater is on backwards and inside out
And you say how appropriate
I don’t want to dissect everything today
I don’t mean to pick you apart you see
But I can’t help it
There I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off
Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it [...]

A Year Like This One – Alanis Morissette
After a year like this one
I’m surprised I do not hate your guts and
After a year like this one
I’m surprised I still love music just as much
After a year like this one
I’m surprised I do not “eat my eye”?

I’m sorry if I’m not [...]
A Man – Alanis Morissette
A Man – Alanis Morissette
I am a man as a man I’ve been told
Bacon is brought to the house in this mold
Born of your bellies I yearn for the cord
Years I have groveled repentance ignored
And I have been blamed
And I have repented
I’m working my way toward our union mended
I am man who has grown from [...]
21 Things I Want In A Lover – Alanis Morissette
21 Things I Want In A Lover – Alanis Morissette

Are you [...]

2020 – Alanis Morissette
I would never have been in such a rush
I would never have tried to control
I would never have worn such ‘fear lenses’
I would never have held on so tightly
I would have kept my boundaries set
My loving no’s, my unwavering yes’s
Risked abandonment and stood by that
And thereby felt constant connect
This fountain of regret, [...]

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 [...]
(Change Is) Never A Waste Of Time – Alanis Morissette
(Change Is) Never A Waste Of Time – Alanis Morissette
I know there’s a reason you’re forcing a smile
You hide what you’re feeling and you have for a while
I can tell that you’re falling
And you feel that you can’t go on
But a new day is calling
And you’ll see that the feeling is gone
[CHORUS:]
You know you’re not [...]
