Pick Yer Nose Lyrics

The song Pick Yer Nose is performed by Ani Difranco in the album named Puddle Dive in the year 1994 .

How come I can pick my ears but not my nose
Who made up that rule anyway
How can you say that's the way it is
That's just the way it goes, why don't you decide for yourself?
What you can do and what you can say?

How come I can pick my friends but not my enemies
What is it about me that offends, what is it about me
'Cause you know I'm only five foot two
And I'm giggly wiggly tell me again, what did I do

Why are you scared of me, I fight with love
And I laugh with rage
You've gotta live light enough to see the humor
And long enough to see some change

I think shy is boring, I think depressed is too
I think pretty is nice but I'd rather see something new
All these plastic people got their plastic surgery
But we got a big big beautiful

We got it for free, who you gonna be
If you can't be yourself
You can't get it from TV
You can't force it on anybody else

You know they come to clear cut
They come to strip mine
They come for some of my big butt
My big brain or just a little time

They wanna take me out to dinner, think I'm a bitch if I don't go
Seems like the people who actually like me
Won't allow me to say no your idea of a conversation
Is the third degree but I don't really know you
And I don't really want to talk about me

'Cause I'm not going to pretend
That I don't pick my nose
That's just the way it is, my friends
That's just the way it goes
This is who I am what I do and what I say

If you like it, let it be
If you don't, please do the same
I fight with love, I laugh with rage
You gotta live light enough to see the humor
And long enough to see some change
