Would Not Come Lyrics - Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie - Alanis Morissette

If I make a lot of tinsel then people will want to 

If I am hardened no fear of further abandonment 

If I am famous then maybe I'll feel good in this skin 

If I am cultured my words will somehow garner respect 

I would throw a party still 

It would not come 

I would bike run swim and still 

It would not come 

I'd go traveling and still 

It would not come 

I would starve myself and still 

It would not come 

If I am masculine I will be taken more seriously 

If I take a break it would make me irresponsible 

If I'm elusive I will surely be sought after often 

If I need assistance then I must be incapable 

I'd be filthy rich and still 

It would not some 

I would seduce then and still 

It would not come 

I would drink vodka and still 

It would not come 

I'd have an orgasm and still 

It wouldn't come 

If I accumulate knowledge 

I'll be impenetrable 

If I am aloof no one will know 

When they strike a nerve 

If I keep my mouth shut the boat 

Will not have to be rocked 

If I am vulnerable I will be 

Trampled upon 

I would go shopping and still 

It would not come 

I'd leave the country and still 

It would not come 

I would scream and rebel and still 

It would not come 

I would stuff my face and still 

It would not come 

I'd be productive and still it would not come 

I'd be celebrated still it would not come 

I'd be the hero and still it would not come 

I'd renunciate and still it would not come
