32 Flavors Lyrics

Squint your eyes and look closer
I'm not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am 32 flavors and then some

Squint your eyes and look closer
I'm not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am 32 flavors and then some
And I'm beyond your peripheral vision
So you might want to turn your head
'Cause someday you're gonna get hungry
And eat all of the words that you just said

I am what I am
I am 32 flavors and then some

God help you if you are an ugly girl
Of course, too pretty is also your doom
'Cause everyone harbors a secret hatred
For the prettiest girl in the room
God help you if you are a phoenix
And you dare to rise up from the ash.
A thousand lies will smolder with jealousy
While you are just flying past

I am what I am
I am 32 flavors and then some
I'm taking my chances as they come
I am 32 flavors and then some
I'm nobody but I am someone

I'd never try to give my life meaning
By demeaning you
And I would like to state for the record
I did everything that I could do

I am beyond your peripheral vision
So you might want to turn your head
'Cause someday you're gonna be starving
And eating all of the words you just said
Yeah, ah yeah

I am what I am

I am 32 flavors and then some
Taking my chances as they come
I am 32 flavors and then some
Looking for truth, but there is none

I am 32 flavors and then some
I'll never forget where I came from
I am 32 flavors and then some
I'm nobody but I am someone

I am 32 flavors and then some
I'm taking my chances as they come
I am 32 flavors and then some
Looking for truth, and there is none...

This is so great! It's about being you no matter what and loving everyone including those who don't like you or say things about you and basically having the best shut-down comebacks and having them all be true. It's an incredibly strong song and Ani-DiFranco gets major props for writing it.

i prefer this verion to the ani defranco one, but just because she is quite clear when she sings so i can understand it easier...

This is probably my favorite song. It's all about self confidence and being who you are, not what others think you should be.
