It's Not Safe Lyrics - Aimee Mann

All you want to do is something good 

So get ready to be ridiculed and misunderstood 

'Cause don't you know that you're a fucking freak in this world 

In which everybody's willing to choose swine over pearls 

And maybe everything is all for nothing 

Still you'd better keep it to yourself 

'Cause God knows it's not safe with anybody else 

You can take your own advice and try again 

But a thousand compromises don't add up to a win 

And they'd be happy if you'd only cover your tracks 

But the trail of crumbs you've left won't help you find your way back 

So maybe everything is all for nothing 

Still you'd better keep it to yourself 

'Cause God knows it's not safe with anybody else 

God knows it's not safe with anybody else 

You can play along, but you'll just end up wrong somehow, won't you 

But you're the idiot who keeps believing in luck 

And you just can't get it through your head that no one else gives a fuck 

So maybe everything is all for nothing 

Still you'd better keep it to yourself 

'Cause God knows it's not safe with anybody else 

God knows it's not safe with anybody else 

God knows it's not safe with anybody else 

It's not safe with anybody else 

God knows it's not safe with anybody else 

Play that guitar 

But you're the idiot who keeps believing in luck 

The speaker is out of the picture 

I'm talking to the microphone 

The microphone thinks that I'm talking 

But I'm not talking at all 

I'm singing to you
