Til now I always got by on my own. I never really cared until I met you. And now it chills me to the bone. How do I get you alone?

I am a girl
I'm 11 years old
That's one more than 10
And one less than 12
(one dozen)
From They Might Be Giants, Here Come the 1 2 3's.
That and TMBG Here Comes Science are great discs to have in the car for kids who want to hear the same songs over and over and over. For the most part, I don't get sick of them. I sometimes keep them going after I drop off the kids!

Still cracks me up how a song can be so misunderstood and used for the exact opposite context.
i think it's the line, "Born in the USA" and everything else is ignored.
I'll try a new version, American FWISer's sing it and tell me if it inspires patriotism.
Born in the USA
Friend died, shot by a gang
He walked the streets a marked man
No colors on his shirt
It turned red by bloody squirts
Born in the USA
Had a job for 40 years
Never missed a day of work due to fears
Got laid off yesterday
The new CEO wants more pay.
Born in the USA
Got sick they don't give a damn
The VA system is a fucking sham
Lost friends fighting their stupid war
Got hell there and here even more
Born in the USA
They say I'm a free man
In debt to everyone as I am
Can't buy a house or some land
Can't even save a grand
Born in the USA
Sang this song with my band
Ten rednecks came to shake my hand
Jumped in their trucks without state tags
Tears in their eye's as they salute torn flags
Born in the USA
Preachers on TV say follow God's way
Send them your money everyday
They buy their planes to promote their cause
The public doesn't even give it pause
Born in the USA
The rich get all the tax breaks
Build big houses along the lakes
Complain about the welfare state
It's the working man they really hate
Born in the USA
Served my country and my fellow man
Did the best that I can
When I get buried I'll have my land
If I'm not cremated and put in a can
Born in the USA

No problem, the music in my head isn't nearly as loud as the voices telling me to kill.
