liz phair was such a rock star. i had endless admiration for her. fuck and run was my favorite song for a long time. she was totally punk but had the most melodic, sweet voice. but i was really dissappointed when she took on a new sound, new look, etc. that was very geared towards breaking into the mainstream. she was even in fucking maxim, from what i recall. however, today one of those songs popped into my head today and i realized i really liked it. the lyrics are so fitting for my insecure days. despite the change in musical direction, i really respect the way she can twist simple words in such a lovely way.

You think that I go home at night/ Take off my clothes, turn out the lights/ But I burn letters that I write/ To you, to make you love me

Yeah, I drive naked through the park/ And run the stop sign in the dark/ Stand in the street, yell out my heart/ To make, to make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me/ I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary Average every day sane psycho Supergoddess/ Average every day sane psycho

You may not believe in me/ But I believe in you/ So I still take the trash out/ Does that make me too normal for you?

So dig a little deeper, cause You still don't get it yet/ See me lickin' my lips, need a primitive fix/ And I'll make, I'll make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me/ I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary Average every day sane psycho Supergoddess/ Average every day sane psycho Supergoddess

See me jump through hoops for you/ You stand there watching me performing/ What exactly do you do?/ Have you ever thought it's you that's boring?/ Who the hell are you?
