Stephenville, TX |
| Housewives trying to recapture their youth |
| By wearing floral print and suede |
| Fixing their hairdos with PC, chemical-free hairspray |
| Martha Stewart taught them to make on TV |
| I was raised a farmgirl |
| I’m too far from home, all alone on the road |
| Trying to figure out who I am now the the stardust has turned to sand |
| And the sand has turned to stone on the starmaking machine |
| I’m 25 years old |
| That ain’t the end but it sure ain’t where I began |
| And my daddy, he wrote songs and he broke colts |
| And he went back to school to get a degree |
| Now he teachs music to kids, he taught music to me And this Alaskan girl was living in Stephenville, Texas |
| Yes, you guessed it, I moved here because I fell in love with a man |
| And I moved his ex-old lady’s things out of the closet |
| The same closet I had to move my things back in It didn’t make me feel that great, as if to demonstrate |
| Everything’s temporary given enough time |
| But hey, I’ve got nothing to lose |
| I’m a singer for crowds, I’m a writer of songs |
| Hey Mom, look, I’m an entertainer |
| I’m a modern day troubadour trying to find justice with six strings |
| Trying to make the world make sense out of me Trying to be loved completely, trying to love honestly |
| Trying to find a decent high noon cup of tea |
| In another shitty hotel |
| I’m trying to listen to the leaves speak |
| Trying to steal secrets from fishes in the creek |
| Trying to figure out who I am |
| A singer, a pretty bad cook, maybe a good mom |
| What will it be? |
| And I’m 25 years old |
| That ain’t the end but it sure ain’t where I began |
| I’m trying to figure out who I am But there’s no hand to hold, no Doctor Martin Luther King |
| There’s just syncophants |
| And the mindlessness on TV or in the magazines |
| On the latest ways to behave |
| So why not follow me, the blond bombshell deity? |
| I’ll sell you neat ideas without big words |
| And a little bit of cleavage to help wash it all down |
| Hey, everybody thought Godard was a clown |
| And that ain’t gonna be me And I’m 25 years old |
| That ain’t the end but it sure ain’t where I began |
| And I’m 25 years old |
| That ain’t the end but it sure ain’t where I began |
| Guess that just means I’m in Texas |
