Artist：ani difranco Songs Title：lost woman song -for lucille clifton I opened a bank account When I was nine years old I closed it when I was eighteen I gave them every penny that Id saved And they gave my blood And my urine A number Now Im sitting in this waiting room Playing with the toys And I am here to exercise My freedom of choice I passed their handheld signs Went through their picket lines They gathered when they saw me coming They shouted when they saw me cross I said why dont you go home Just leave me alone Im just another woman lost You are like fish in the water Who dont know that they are wet As far as I can tell The world isnt perfect yet His bored eyes were obscene On his denim thighs a magazine I wish hed never come here with me In fact I wish hed never come near me I wish his shoulder Wasnt touching mine I am growing older Waiting in this line Some of lifes best lessons Are learned at the worst times Under the fierce flourescent She offered her hand for me to hold She offered stability and calm And I was crushing her palm Through the pinch pull wincing My smile unconvincing On that sterile battlefield that sees Only casualties Never heros My heart hit absolute zero Lucille, your voice still sounds in me Mine was a relatively easy tragedy Now the profile of our country Looks a little less hard nosed But that picket line persisted And that clinics since been closed They keep pounding their fists on reality Hoping it will break But I dont think theres a one of us Leads a life free of mistakes
