liner

Never was a cornflake girl thought that was a good solution hangin with the raisin girls she's gone to the other side givin us a yo heave he things are getting kind of gross and I go at sleepy time this is not really happening you bet your life it is

Peel out the watch word just peel out the watchword

She knows what's goin on seems we got a cheaper feel now all the sweeteaze are gone gone to the other side with my encyclopedia they musta paid her a nice price she's puttin on her string bean love this is not really happening you bet your life it is

Rabbit where'd you put the keys girl and the man with the golden gun thinks he knows so much thinks he knows so much Rabbit where'd you put the keys girl

Inspired by Alice Walker's novel, Possessing The Secret Of Joy. Tori says, "There's the Cornflake Girls and the Raisin Girls, and they represent two different ways of thinking: narrow-mindedness and open-mindness. It's about the disillusionment that comes from the realization that someone has gone from one way of thinking to another. It's also about this idea that women are the good guys and men the bad guys, which just isn't true all the time."

All lyrics are written by Tori Amos.
