Round a Pole - Ani DiFranco

I could sing you round a pole

I could talk you up a tree

But when it comes to what really matters

You are way more clever than me

I knew i wanted to be challenged

But i was unclear about how

So i’ll be the guy with the toolbox

And you be the fun lovin gal

And i’ll learn to fix stuff

If you will teach me love

And god will radiate out from within us

Instead of this bullshit from above

And we can dance round like monkeys

After the paparazzi have gone home

Having let go forever

The fallacy of ever being alone

I could sing you round a pole

Like a ball at the end of a rope

Have you duckin and sluggin

Protecting your head

But i decided just to love you back instead

Cuz i have studied my own pain

Like an ambitious scientist

And i’ve discovered it’s all the same

And has nothing to do with this

So i’ll learn to fix stuff

If you will teach me love

And god will radiate out from within us

Instead of this bullshit from above

And we can dance around like monkeys

After the paparazzi have gone home

Having let go forever

The fallacy of ever being alone
