Genie Lyrics - Allergic To Water - Ani Difranco

When I can hear somethin calling 

From somewhere deep and far 

I'm a genie in a bikini 

Comin out of a jar 

I float out of myself 

And into the divine 

But it ain't all the time 

Sometimes I'm stuck in my mind 

But I'm sick of standing in the breadlines 

With a hunger that just won't quit 

Sick of mining my own hillsides 

For gems to sell at market 

Just gonna sit here like buddha 

Under this here bodhi tree 

Say goodbye to the game 

Of what can I get for me 

I just cried enough times 

And I think I wore out my mind 

You came out of the blue 

Like twilight's first star 

And we picked up on each other 

From somewhere deep and far 

And we woke up married 

After one drunk fuck 

And I couldn't believe you'd found me 

I couldn't believe my luck 

Cuz I did my time
