Phair, Liz - Whip-Smart Lyrics
I'm gonna tell my son to grow up pretty as the grass is green and
Whip-smart as the English Channel's wide.
And I'm gonna tell my son to keep his money in his mattress
And his watch on any hand between his thighs.
On the back of his big brown eyes.
When they do the double dutch, that's them dancing. [x4]
And I'm gonna tell my son to join a circus so that death is cheap and
Games are just another way of life.
And I'm gonna tell my son to be a prophet of mistakes because for
Every truth, there are half a million lies.
And I'm gonna lock my son up in a tower
'Til he learns to let his hair down far enough to climb outside.

"When they do the Double Dutch. That's them Dancing."
Discovered this song on a local show on NPR the other day. Stuck in my head since. LOVE IT
I hope you've since stopped abusing yourself with NPR. That's no way to go through life.
I can listen to Whip-Smart all day everyday.
Same here
best fucking song on the whole album
