Davis Alana 32 Flavors lyrics

Squint your eyes and look closer
I`m not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
And I`m beyond your peripheral vision
So you might want to turn your head
Cause someday you`re going to get hungry
And eat most of the words you just said

Both my parents taught me about good will
And I have done well by their names
Just the kindness I`ve lavished on strangers
Is more than I can explain
Still there`s many who`ve turned out their porch lights
Just so I would think they were not home
And hid in the dark of their windows
`Til I`d passed and left them alone

And god help you if you are an ugly girl
Course too pretty is also your doom
Cause everyone harbors a secret hatred
For the prettiest girl in the room
And god help you if you are a pheonix
And you dare to rise up from the ash
A thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy
While you are just flying back

I`m not trying to give my life meaning
By demeaning you
And I would like to state for the record
I did everything that I could do
I`m not saying that I`m a saint
I just don`t want to live that way
No, I will never be a saint
But I will always say

Squint your eyes and look closer
I`m not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
And I`m beyond your peripheral vision
So you might want to turn your head
Cause someday you might find you`re starving
And eating all of the words you said
