[00:00.99] I was reading Slim Aarons and I got to thinking that I thought
[00:08.58] Maybe I'd get less stressed if I was tested less like
[00:15.58] All of these debutantes
[00:18.58] Smiling for miles in pink dresses and high heels on white yachts
[00:25.70] But I'm not
[00:29.13] Baby, I'm not
[00:33.17] No, I'm not
[00:37.06] That, I'm not
[00:41.56] I've been tearing around in my fucking nightgown
[00:46.11] 24/7 Sylvia Plath
[00:50.94] Writing in blood on the walls
[00:53.72] 'Cause the ink in my pen don't work in my notepad
[00:59.07] Don't ask if I'm happy, you know that I'm not
[01:03.31] But, at best, I can say I'm not sad
[01:08.05] 'Cause hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[01:15.78] Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[01:23.13] 
[01:32.93] I had fifteen-year dances
[01:36.69] 
[01:44.79] Church basement romances, yeah, I've cried
[01:50.85] Spilling my guts with the Bowery Bums
[01:55.46] Is the only love I've ever known
[01:59.81] Except for the stage, which I also call home, when I'm not
[02:07.18] Servin' up God in a burnt coffee pot for the triad
[02:15.37] Hello, it's the most famous woman you know on the iPad
[02:24.49] Calling from beyond the grave, I just wanna say, "Hi, Dad"
[02:33.11] I've been tearing up town in my fucking white gown
[02:38.10] Like a goddamn near sociopath
[02:42.22] Shaking my ass is the only thing that's
[02:46.69] Got this black narcissist off my back
[02:50.96] She couldn't care less, and I never cared more
[02:54.92] So there's no more to say about that
[02:59.23] Except hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[03:07.65] Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman with my past
[03:15.90] There's a new revolution, a loud evolution that I saw
[03:24.61] Born of confusion and quiet collusion of which mostly I've known
[03:33.94] A modern day woman with a weak constitution, 'cause I've got
[03:41.70] Monsters still under my bed that I could never fight off
[03:50.64] A gatekeeper carelessly dropping the keys on my nights off
[03:59.42] I've been tearing around in my fucking nightgown
[04:04.37] 24/7 Sylvia Plath
[04:09.51] Writing in blood on your walls
[04:12.73] 'Cause the ink in my pen don't look good in my pad
[04:17.02] They write that I'm happy, they know that I'm not
[04:21.73] But, at best, you can see I'm not sad
[04:26.61] But hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[04:34.94] Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[04:43.68] Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
[04:51.70] But I have it
[04:55.78] Yeah, I have it
[05:00.18] Yeah, I have it
[05:04.15] I have
