Ani Difranco Joyful Girl (Live With The Buffalo Philharmonic) lyrics

I do it for the joy it brings
Because I'm a joyful girl
Because the world owes me nothing
We owe each other the world

I do it because it's the least I can do
I do it because I learned it from you
I do it just because I want to
Because I want to

Everything I do is judged
They mostly get it wrong but oh well
'Cuz the bathroom mirror has not budged
And the woman who lives there can tell

The, the truth from the stuff that they say
She looks me in the eye
Says, would you prefer the easy way?
No, well okay then, don't cry


And I wonder if everything I do, I do
Instead of something
I want to do more
The question fills my head

I know, there's no grand plan here
This is just the way it goes
And when everything else seems unclear
I guess at least, I know

I do it for the joy it brings
Because I'm a joyful girl
Because the world owes me nothing
It owes me nothing
And we owe each other

[Incomprehensible]
