Ani Di Franco comes up with some very good ones. Very casual.

I'm ok, if you get me at a good angle,
you're ok in this sort of light,
we don't look like pages from a magazine,
but that's allright,
I crashed your pickup truck, then I had to drive it back home,
I was crying, I was so scared of what you would do,
of what you would say, but you just started laughing,
so I started laughing along, saying it looks a little rough,
but it runs okay,
we get a little further from perfection,
each year on the road, I guess that's what they call character,
I guess that's just the way it goes, better to be dusty than polished,
like some store window mannequin, touch me where I'm rusty,
let me stain your hands, when you're pretty as a picture,
they pound down your door, but I've been offered love,
in two dimensions before, and I know that it's not all,
it's made out to be, let's show them how it's done,
let's do it all imperfectly |
