Lirik Alanis Morissette I Was Hoping

  • my wife is in the next room we've been having troubles you know please don't tell her or anyone
  • but i need to talk to somebody
  • you said “wouldn't it be a shame if i knew how great i was five minutes before i died i'd be filled
  • with such regret before i took my last breath” and i said “you're willing to tell me this now
  • and you're not going to die any time soon”
  • and i said i haven't been eating chicken or meat or anything and you said yes
  • but you've been wearing leather and laughed and said we're at the top of the food chain
  • and yes you're a fine woman and i cringed
  • i was hoping i was hoping we could heal each other
  • i was hoping i was hoping we could be raw together
  • we left the restaurant where the head waiter (in his 60′s) said “good-bye sir thank you for your business sir you're
  • successful and established sir and we like the frequency with which you dine here sir
  • and your money” and when i walked by they said “thank you too dear” i was all pigtails and cords
  • and there was a day when i would've said something like “hey dude i could buy and sell this place so kiss it”
  • i too once thought i was owed something
  • i was hoping i was hoping we could challenge each other
  • i was hoping i was hoping we could crack each other up
  • i too thought that when proved wrong i lost somehow
  • i too once thought life was cruel
  • it's a cycle really you think i'm withdrawing and guilt tripping you i think you're insensitive
  • and i don't feel heard and i said do you believe we are fundamentally judgmental? fundamentally evil?
  • and you said yes i said i don't believe in revenge in right or wrong good or bad you said
  • “well what about that man that i saw handcuffed in the emergency room bleeding after beating his kid
  • and she threw a shoe at his head.
  • i think what he did was wrong and i would've had a hard time feeling compassion for him”
  • i had to watch my tone for fear of having you feel judged.
  • i was hoping i was hoping we could dance together
  • i was hoping i was hoping we could be creamy together
