On the Right Side of Ani DiFranco (sort of)

feminism ain’t about women
no, that’s not who it is for
it’s about a shifting consciousness
that’ll bring an end to war

are you part of the solution
or are you part of the con?
which side are you on now
which side are you on?

if you’re not getting happier as you get older
then you’re fuckin’ up

if you’re not aware that what you put out
is what you get back
that you make the world through the way you act
you can’t harness the awesome power of that fact

it builds up, it builds up
yeah your love builds up till it’s bigger than you
then it just carries you through
you better ready yourself cause whatcha gonna do
if you’re not, if you’re not

if you’re not getting happier as you get older
then you’re fuckin’ up

Little baby
In the next room dreaming,
Is just icing on the cake,
There is nothing like dancing,
A dance of give and take,
One step forward,
One step sideways,
A helpless feeling,
When the earth shakes.

I will always be your lover,
Even after our atoms are dispersed,
We’ll be pushing up daisies,
And my crush will just be getting worse,
And I will follow you into the next life,
Like a dog chasing after a hearse.

I just don’t wanna strive for nothing anymore,
I just wanna lie here with you,
Keep the wolves outside the door,
There is nothing in this world you could ever show me
That could ever matter more
