Alanis Morissette - Right Through You Lyrics

Alanis Morissette - Right Through You Video

Wait a minute man

You mispronounced my name

You didn't wait for all the information

Before you turned me away

 

Wait a minute, sir

You kind of hurt my feelings

You see me as a sweet back-loaded puppet

And you've got a meal ticket taste

 

I see right through you

I know right through you

I feel right through you

I walk right through you

 

You took me for a joke

You took me for a child

You took a long hard look at my ass

And then played golf for a while

 

Your shake is like a fish

You pat me on the head

You took me out to wine, dine, 69 me

But didn't hear a damn word I said

 

I see right through you

I know right through you

I feel right through you

I walk right through you

 

Oh, hello Mr. Man

You didn't think I'd come back

You didn't think I'd show up with my army

And this ammunition on my back

 

Now that I'm Miss Thing

Now that I'm a zillionaire

You scan the credits for your name

And wonder why it's not there

 

I see right through you

I know right through you

I feel right through you

I walk right through you

Alanis Morissette - Precious Illusions Lyrics

Alanis Morissette - Precious Illusions Video

You'll rescue me, right?

In the exact same way they never did.

I'll be happy, right?

When your healing powers kick in

 

You'll complete me, right?

Then my life can finally begin

I'll be worthy, right?

Only when you realize the gem I am

 

But this won't work now the way it once did

And I won't keep it up even though I would love to

Once I know who I'm not then I'll know who I am

But I know I won't keep on playing the victim

 

These precious illusions in my head

Did not let me down when I was defenseless

And parting with them is like

Parting with invisible best friends

 

This ring will help me yet

As will you knight in shining armor

This pill will help me yet

As will these boys gone through like water

 

But this won't work as well as the way it once did

'Cause I want to decide between survival and bliss

And though I know who I'm not I still don't know who I am

But I know I won't keep on playing the victim

 

These precious illusions in my head

Did not let me down when I was a kid

And parting with them is like

Parting with a childhood best friend

 

I've spent so long

Firmly looking outside me

I've spent so much time

Living in survival mode

 

But this won't work now the way it once did

'Cause I want to decide between survival and bliss

And though I know who I'm not I still don't know who I am

But I know I won't keep on playing the victim

 

These precious illusions in my head

Did not let me down when I was defenseless

And parting with them is like

Parting with invisible best friends

 

These precious illusions in my head

Did not let me down when I was a kid

And parting with them is like

Parting with a childhood best friend

Alanis Morissette - Everything Lyrics

Alanis Morissette - Everything Video

I can be an asshole of the grandest kind

I can withhold like it's going out of style

I can be the moodiest baby, and you've never met anyone

Who is as negative as I am sometimes

 

I am the wisest woman you've ever met

I am the kindest soul with whom you've connected

I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen, and you've never met anyone

Who is as positive as I am sometimes

 

You see everything, you see every part

You see all my light and you love my dark

You dig everything of which I'm ashamed

There's not anything to which you can't relate

And you're still here

 

I blame everyone else, not my own partaking

My passive aggressiveness can be devastating

I'm terrified and mistrusting and you've never met anyone

Who is as closed down as I am sometimes

 

You see everything, you see every part

You see all my light and you love my dark

You dig everything of which I'm ashamed

There's not anything to which you can't relate

And you're still here

 

What I resist, persists, and speaks louder than I know

What I resist, you love, no matter how low or high I go

 

I'm the funniest woman that you've ever known

I am the dullest woman that you've ever known

I'm the most gorgeous woman that you've ever known, and you've never met anyone

Who is as everything as I am sometimes

 

You see everything, you see every part

You see all my light and you love my dark

You dig everything of which I'm ashamed

There's not anything to which you can't relate

And you're still here
