Lyrics Adam and Eve (live) - Ani DiFranco

Tonight you stooped to my level
I am your mangy little whore
Now you're trying to find your underwear
And then your socks and then the door
And you're trying to find a reason
Why you have to leave
But i know it's 'cuz you think you're adam
And you think i'm eve

You rhapsodize about beauty
And my eyes glaze
Everything i love is ugly
I mean really, you would be amazed
Just do me a favor
It's the least that you can do
Just don't treat me like i am
Something that happened to you

I am truly sorry about all this

You put a tiny pin prick
In my big red balloon
And as i slowly start to exhale
That's when you leave the room
I did not design this game
I did not name the stakes
I just happen to like apples
And i am not afraid of snakes

I am truly sorry about all this
I envy you your ignorance
I hear that it's bliss

So i let go the ratio
Of things said to thing heard
As i leave you to your garden
And the beauty you preferred
And i wonder what of this
Will have meaning for you
When you've left it all behind
I guess i'll even wonder
If you meant it
At the time
