Ani DiFranco

Promiscuity

Promiscuity is nothing more than traveling

There's more than one way to see the world

And some of us like to stay close to home

And some of us are Columbus, what can I say

Nature always gets her way

Nature always gets her way

And seeing the world through another's eyes

Is like busting a window in a house of lies

And in the end you make up your own mind

And there's wide open spaces and little cordoned off

places

Check 'em out, check 'em all out, take your time

How far is too far

How much is enough

You gotta test this stuff

I mean

How you gonna know, what you need, what you like

'Til you've been around the block a few times on that

bike

I mean

How you gonna know, who you are, what you feel

'Til you've felt a few things that just don't feel real

Promiscuity is research and development

Evolution begs embellishment and

Baby, you're a star

And you got to invisibilize society when society gets

cruel

Just make like you are nature's tool, which you are

Nature always gets her way

Nature always gets her way

And monogamy is that carnival trophy

You earn when you throw that ball into that urn

It's somewhat dumb luck, somewhat learned

And you just know when it's your turn

And honesty is the hardest part, yes honesty is the

highest art,

And honestly I myself just started

And eureka, I'm less broken hearted

I mean

How you gonna know, what you need, what you like

'Til you've been around the block a few times on that

bike

I mean

How you gonna know, who you are, what you feel

'Til you've felt a few things that just don't feel real
