Paroles – Alanis Morissette – The time of your life
The time of your life
Standing there on a road that leads to anywhere
Like a child left in the wilderness, standing there penniless
Wanting to be the best
Here's a place where life runs at a different pace
Where love is just convenient, none are obedient
And we are subservient
Look at me, I'm a girl that some may preconceive
Why do they try and generalize, why are they antagonizing me
But something I can't control that...
Chorus:
I WANTCHA
You know I'll never stop 'til I've GOTCHA
You'll never be quite the same when I ROCK YA
I'm not the kind of girl that you thought I was
You'll have a good time 'cause I WANTCHA
I'm breaking down the walls 'till I have you, feel you
Show you the time of your life
Here we are and I wonder how we've come this far
In a world that does not recognize women are victimized
What does that symbolize
Why do I want the things I usually criticize
It may be self destructiveness, or maybe it's emptiness inside
But something I can't control that...
Repeat Chorus
You'll Have a good time...
It's a lonely road, and no one knows the way that I feel
I'm not giving up now... I'll never try to justify
They'll never understand, you'll be a happy man
You'll have the time of your life
It's something, it's something, it's something that I can't control
The time of your life...
(repeat)
