Housewives trying to recapture their youth

By wearing floral print and suede

Fixing their hairdos with PC'

Martha Stewart taught them to make on TV

I was raised a farmgirl

I'm too far from home' all alone on the road

Trying to figure out who I am

Now the the stardust has turned to sand

And the sand has turned to stone

On the starmaking machine

I'm 25 years old

That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began

And my daddy' he wrote songs and he broke colts

And he went back to school to get a degree

Now he teachs music to kids' he taught music to me

And this Alaskan girl was living in Stephenville'

Texas that is

Yes' you guessed it'

I moved here because I fell in love with a man

The same closet I had to move my things back in

It didn't make me feel that great' as if to demonstrate

Everything's temporary given enough time

I'm 25 years old

That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began

But hey' I've got nothing to lose

I'm a singer for crowds' I'm a writer of songs

Hey Mom' look' I'm an entertainer

I'm a modern day troubadour trying to

Find justice with six strings

Trying to make the world make sense out of me

Trying to be loved completely' trying to love honestly

Trying to find a decent high noon cup of tea

In another shitty hotel

I'm trying to listen to the leaves speak

Trying to steal secrets from fishes in the creek

Trying to figure out who I am

A singer' a pretty bad cook' maybe a good mom one day

What will it be

I'm trying to figure out who I am

But there's no hand to hold' no Doctor Martin Luther King

There's just syncophants

And the mindlessness on TV or in the magazines

On the latest ways to behave

So why not follow me' the blond bombshell deity

I'll sell you neat ideas without big words

And a little bit of cleavage to help wash it all down

Hey' everybody thought Godard was a clown

And that ain't gonna be me

And I'm 25 years old

That ain't the end but it sure ain't where I began

Guess that just means I'm in Texas
