Aimee Mann

Lyrics You don't have the room Aimee Mann

 846

You don't have the room


You don't have the room to make mistakes
A trip, a slip, a fall is all it takes
So you're a quiet smile, a pretty face
That never argues, just in case you're wrong
Lord, the songs you have to sing to them
When you don't mean a thing to them

You don't have the skin to bend the rules
The world will gladly suffer whiter fools
And when they screw it up, they justify
A second chance so they can try again
Running up a tab they'll never see
Becoming what you'll never be

You parents said of course they always knew
They must be fools to ever count on you
But you don't have the room you don't have the room

You don't have the means to make a mark
Planting all your seeds but in the dark
And though you're twice as fast, you carry more
So everything you're running for, you lose
Credit goes to them instead of you
'Cause they start out ahead of you

I'm sure a stronger girl could rise above
The twin desires of dignity and love
But you don't have the room
You don't have the room

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics YOU DON'T HAVE THE ROOM of AIMEE MANN is also present in the album Queens of the summer hotel (2021)

Biografia

Aimee Mann is an American singer-songwriter known for her indie pop style characterized by introspective lyrics and enveloping melodies. She began her career in the 1980s as the lead vocalist of the band 'Til Tuesday, achieving moderate success with singles like "Voices Carry". After the band's disbandment, Mann embarked on a successful solo career, releasing critically acclaimed albums such as "Bachelor No. 2" (1993) and "Magnolia" (1999), the latter being the soundtrack to Paul Thomas Anderson's film of the same name. In 2003, Mann founded her own record label, SuperEgo Records, to have greater control over her music. Her subsequent albums, such as "The Forgotten Arm" (2005) and "@#% and *!" (2017), have solidified her status as a successful independent artist. Some of Aimee Mann's most representative songs include "Save Me", "Wise Up", and "Deathly".
