Eight Easy Steps Lyrics - So Called Chaos - Alanis Morissette

(Let's get it while it's hot) 

How to stay paralyzed by fear of abandonment 

How to defer to men in solvable predicaments 

How to control someone to be a carbon copy of you 

How to have that not work and have them run away from you 

How to keep people at arms-length and never get too close 

How to mistrust the ones you supposedly love the most 

How to pretend you're fine and don't need help from anyone 

How to feel worthless unless you're serving or helping someone 

[Chorus] 

I'll teach you all this in eight easy steps 

The course of a lifetime, you'll never forget 

I'll show you how to in eight easy steps 

I'll show you how leadership looks when taught by the best 

How to hate women when you're supposed to be a feminist 

How to play all-pious when you're really a hypocrite 

How to hate God when you're a prayer and a spiritualist 

How to sabotage your fantasies by fear of success 

[Chorus] 

I've been doing research for years 

I've been practicing my ass off 

I've been training my whole life for this moment, I swear to you 

Culminating just to be this well-versed leader before you 

I'll teach you all this in eight easy steps 

The course of a lifetime, you'll never forget 

I'll show you how to in eight easy steps 

I'll show you how leadership looks when taught by the best 

How to lie to yourself and thereby to everyone else 

How to keep smiling when you're thinking of killing yourself 

How to know them all too well to avoid going within 

How to stay stuck in your life blaming them for everything 

[Chorus] 

In eight easy steps 

The course of a lifetime, you'll never forget 

I'll show you how to in eight easy steps 

I'll show you how leadership looks when taught by the best
