Tori Amos: [ singing ]
“Caught a lite sneeze, caught a lite breeze
Caught a lightweight lightningseed
Boys on my left side
Boys on my right side
Boys in the middle
And you’re not here, I need a big loan
From the girl zone.
Didn’t know our love was so small
Couldn’t stand at all
Mr. St. John, just bring your son.
This fire is hot
And my cells can’t feed
And you still got that Belle dragging your foots
I’m hiding it well, Sister Ernestine
But I still get that Belle
Dragging my foots.
Building, tumbling down
Didn’t know our love was so small
Couldn’t stand at all
Mr. St. John, just bring your son.
[ turns around to play the piano behind her ]
Right on time
You get closer and closer
Called my name, but there’s no way in
Use that fame
Rent you wife and kids today
Maybe she will
Maybe she will caught a lite sneeze
Dreamed a little dream
Made my own pretty hate machine.
[ turns back around to once again play the original piano ]
Boys on my left side
Boys on my right side
Boys in the middle and you’re not here
Boys in their dresses
And you’re not here
I need a big loan from the girl zone.
Yes, I need a big loan from the girl zone.
Building, tumbling down
Didn’t know our love was so small
Couldn’t stand at all
Mr. St. John, just bring your son.”
I appreciate the balanced perspective you provided here.
