"Plain Jane" lyrics
"Plain Jane"
You wear couture clothing like a hunter wears camouflage
Hiding insecurity hoping no one ever catches on
You like to read scientific magazines like Vanity Fair
There was a well-written article about serotonin in there
You keep the same company you think Coco kept too
You wear a bracelet on your wrist that says What Would Elvis Do?
You make snide comments in private but in public you're fashionably green
You're ironic, but not too proud to brag, you know what it really means
Oh, cynicism has begun to numb the pain
Fashion still works until you realize you're the same
Plain Jane
You have a rock hard body but you only make love in the dark
Beneath painted legs you're afraid they'll see what's really in your heart
You say cool things like at least murder is interesting
'Cause the worst crime a person can commit in life is to be boring
Oh, cynicism has begun to numb the pain
Fashion still works until you realize you're the same
Plain Jane
Such a sweet face, just embrace the real you
You will see it's just lovely and more than enough to be loved
Yes, loved
Loved
Oh, cynicism has begun to numb the pain
Fashion still works until you realize you're the same
Plain
What's wrong with plain old Jane?
Kinda like plain Jane
I like plain Jane

Dido - "Slide" Even on a day like this
When you're crawling on the floor
Reaching for the phone to ring
Anyone who knows you anymore
It's all right to make mistakes, you're only human
Inside everybody's hiding...
Alanis Morissette - "Hand In My Pocket" I'm broke, but I'm happy
I'm poor, but I'm kind
I'm short, but I'm healthy, yeah
I'm high, but I'm grounded
I'm sane, but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost, but I'm hopeful, baby
And what it all comes down...
Train - "Meet Virginia" She doesn't own a dress
Her hair is always a mess
If you catch her stealing she won't confess
She's beautiful
Smokes a pack a day
Wait, that's me, but anyway
She doesn't care a thing about that, hey...
Bonnie Raitt - "Nick Of Time" A friend of mine, she cries at night
And she calls me on the phone
Sees babies everywhere she goes
And she wants one of her own
She's waited long enough she says
And still he can't decide
Pretty...
Wynonna & The Big Noise - "Things That I Lean On" Psalm 23 when I'm scared to death
A sleeping pill and my mind won't rest
A little BB King when the thrill is gone
These are the things that I lean on
God's grace when I'm looking on a dangerous path...
