Deep Dish Lyrics - Little Plastic Castle - Ani Difranco

Cold and drizzly night in Chicago's deep dish 

Fluorescent light of the bathroom 

Shows my hands as they are 

See an eyelash on my cheek 

 

Pick it off and make a wish 

And walk back out into the bar 

Wind at the windows 

Neon lights, the pattered pane 

 

The waitress wields the weight 

Of her tray around her palm 

The doorman cups his hands 

And lights his cigarette again 

 

And the rain marches on 

(This is only a possibility in a world of possibilities. 

There are, obviously there are many possibilities, 

ranging from small to large, before long there will be short, before short there was nothing. 

When there was nothing there was always the possibility of something, becoming what it is) 

 

Don't even bother trying 

To say something clever 

Clever is as clever does 

No matter what it says 

 

I'm looking for a sign 

Says you're for real this time 

But I don't trust what's in your head 

I walk up to the bar 

 

And point to the top shelf 

And then I throw my head back 

And laugh at myself 

I raise a toast to all our saviors 

 

Each so badly behaved 

It's too bad that their world 

Is the one that they saved 

 

(Now you got to dance with me, 

Now is when it's gotta be 'cause I can't wait for the dance floor to fill in. 

If you want to dance with me, 

I'll show you how it's gonna be 'cause I can't wait for the band to begin) 

 

There's a spider spinning cobwebs 

From your elbow to the table 

While my eyes ride the crowd 

In a secret rodeo 

 

I smile with my mouth 

Lift my watch up to the light 

Say, oh look I have to go
