Ani Difranco - Back Back Back Lyrics

Send "Back Back Back" ringtone to your cell

Back back back in the back of your mind

Are you learning an angry language?

Tell me boy boy boy are you tending to your joy

Or are you just letting it vanquish?

Back back back in the dark of your mind

Where the eyes of your demons are gleaming

Are you mad mad mad about the life you never had

Even when you are dreaming

Who are these old old old people in these nursing homes

Scowling away at nothing like big rag dolls

Just cursing at the walls and pulling out all of their stuffing

Every day is a door leading back to the core

Yes old age will distill you

And if you're this this this full of bitterness now

Some day it will just fill you

When you sit right down in the middle of yourself

You're gonna wanna have a comfortable chair

So renovate your soul before you get too old

'cuz you're gonna be housebound there

When you're old you fold up like an envelope

And you mail yourself right inside

And there's nowhere to go except out real slow

Are you ready boy for that ride?

Your arrogance is gaining on you and so is eternity

You better practice happiness you better practice humility

You took the air you took the time

You were fed and you were free

Now you'd better put some beauty back

While you got the energy

You'd better put some beauty back boy

While you got the energy
