Names And Dates And Times Lyrics - Puddle Dive - Ani Difranco

I know so many white people 

I mean, where do I start? 

The trouble with white people 

Is you can't tell them apart 

I'm so bad with names 

And dates and times 

But I'm big on faces 

That is, except for mine 

I believe you when you tell me 

We've met before 

This time you've got my interest 

This time you've got the floor 

Why don't you go and tell me something 

I don't already know 

Give me something to remember you by 

When I go 

I eat too much 

I laugh too long 

Maybe I'll like too much of you 

When I'm gone 

Let's go over to the window 

And sit in the neon light 

Let's go out walking 

You know, it's garbage night 

Let's go down to the east river 

And throw something in 

Something we can't live without 

And then let's start again 

The more you talk 

The more I get 

The sense of something 

That hasn't happened yet 

The more you talk 

The more I want to know 

The way I'll remember you 

When I go 

I eat too much 

I laugh too long 

Maybe I'll like too much of you 

When I'm gone 

I am so many white people 

I mean where do I start 

I've got lots of personalities 

I just can't tell them apart 

And I never remember anything 

Except for those things 

Which I never forget you know 

There's no in between 

I'm big on your face 

Yeah, it's big in my mind 

You're like the rest of the human race 

You're one of a kind
