Ani Difranco - If He Tries Anything Lyrics

I'm invincible, so are you
We do all the things they say we can't do
We walk around in the middle of the night
And if it's too far to walk, we just hitch a ride

We got rings of dirt around our necks
We talk like auctioneers and we bounce like checks
We smell like shit, still when we walk down the street
All the boys line up to throw themselves at our feet

I say, "I think he likes you", you say, "I think he do too"
Go and get him girl before he gets you
I'll be watching you from the wings
I will come to your rescue if he tries anything

It's a long long road, it's a big big world
We are wise, wise women, we are giggling girls
We both carry a smile to show when we're pleased
We both carry a switchblade in our sleeves

Tell you one thing, I'm gonna make noise when I go down
For ten square blocks, they're gonna know I died
All the goddesses will come up to the ripped screen door
And say, "What do you want, dear?" and I'll say, "I want inside"

I say, "I think he likes you", you say, "I think he do too"
Go and get him girl before he gets you
I'll be watching you from the wings
I will come to your rescue if he tries anything
