《On Every Corner》歌词

[00:00:00] On Every Corner - Ani Difranco

[00:00:15] Death

[00:00:21] Has been your lover

[00:00:23] He has brought you

[00:00:24] The edges of your life

[00:00:28] And now you are looking over

[00:00:30] And all we can say is

[00:00:33] Its gonna be all right

[00:00:35] And I am looking forward

[00:00:38] To looking back on these days

[00:00:41] When on every corner

[00:00:45] Someone holds a sign

[00:00:47] That says Im homeless

[00:00:48] Im hungry and

[00:00:49] I have aids

[00:01:07] How will they define our generation

[00:01:10] In the coming decades

[00:01:15] Who will tell the story

[00:01:17] And what will they say

[00:01:21] Will they say the victims

[00:01:22] Were thought of as criminals

[00:01:24] While the guilty sat on high

[00:01:26] Deciding their fate

[00:01:28] Ticking off statistics in their spare time

[00:01:31] Tell me

[00:01:32] Which is the crime

[00:01:47] May you never test positive

[00:01:50] Pregnancy

[00:01:50] Hiv

[00:01:51] May you never be the receptacle of blame

[00:01:56] May you never be the scapegoat

[00:01:58] For a whole

[00:02:00] World full of shame

[00:02:03] May you never be fighting for your life

[00:02:04] And at the same time

[00:02:06] Have to fight for your name

[00:02:35] There are too few who open both eyes

[00:02:37] We sit back in our easy chairs

[00:02:38] And we try to sympathize

[00:02:39] Whether from the point of a needle or

[00:02:41] The edge of our beds

[00:02:42] We too like too many others

[00:02:43] Could be dead

[00:02:44] Our actions

[00:02:45] Will define us

[00:02:46] Before a single definition can be said

[00:02:49] Yeah so what if God is testing us

[00:02:51] What if thats true

[00:02:52] What are you going to do

[00:02:58] What is the answer

[00:03:00] To you

[00:03:09] Death

[00:03:18] Has been your lover

[00:03:20] He has brought you

[00:03:21] The edges of your life

[00:03:25] And now you are looking over

[00:03:28] And all we can say is

[00:03:31] Its gonna be all right

[00:03:33] And I am looking forward

[00:03:36] To looking back on these days

[00:03:40] When on every corner

[00:03:44] Someone holds a sign

[00:03:46] That says Im homeless

[00:03:47] Im hungry and

[00:03:48] I have aids
