Ani Difranco
My I.q.

when i was four years old
they tried to test my i.q.
they showed me a picture
of 3 oranges and a pear
they said,
which one is different?
it does not belong
they taught me different is wrong
but when i was 13 years old
i woke up one morning
thighs covered in blood
like a war
like a warning
that i live in a breakable takeable body
an ever increasingly valuable body
that a woman had come in the night to replace me
deface me
see,
my body is borrowed
yeah, i got it on loan
for the time in between my mom and some maggots
i don't need anyone to hold me
i can hold my own
i got highways for stretchmarks
see where i've grown
i sing sometimes
like my life is at stake
'cause you're only as loud
as the noises you make
i'm learning to laugh as hard
as i can listen
'cause silence
is violence
in women and poor people
if more people were screaming then i could relax
but a good brain ain't diddley
if you don't have the facts
we live in a breakable takeable world
an ever available possible world
and we can make music
like we can make do
genius is in a back beat
backseat to nothing if you're dancing
especially something stupid
like i.q.
for every lie i unlearn
i learn something new
i sing sometimes for the war that i fight
'cause every tool is a weapon -
if you hold it right.


Mirror lyrics:

if you hold it right.
'cause every tool is a weapon -
i sing sometimes for the war that i fight
i learn something new
for every lie i unlearn
like i.q.
especially something stupid
backseat to nothing if you're dancing
genius is in a back beat
like we can make do
and we can make music
an ever available possible world
we live in a breakable takeable world
if you don't have the facts
but a good brain ain't diddley
if more people were screaming then i could relax
in women and poor people
is violence
'cause silence
as i can listen
i'm learning to laugh as hard
as the noises you make
'cause you're only as loud
like my life is at stake
i sing sometimes
see where i've grown
i got highways for stretchmarks
i can hold my own
i don't need anyone to hold me
for the time in between my mom and some maggots
yeah, i got it on loan
