Letra Joyful Girl de Ani Difranco original

i do it for the joy it brings
because i am a joyful girl
because the world owes me nothing
we owe each other the world.
i do it cuase its the least i can do
because i learned it from you.
i do it just because i want to,
because i want to.
everything i do i judged,
and they mostly get it wrong
but oh well
the bathroom mirror has not budged,
and the woman who lives there can tell
the truth from the stuff they say.
she looks me in the eye,
and says would you prefer the easy way?
no, well ok then,
don't cry.
heyy...heyy. yeah, yeah
and i wonder if everything i do
i do instead
of something i would rather do more
the question fills my head.
and i know there is no grand plan here
this is just the way it goes.
i do it for the joy it brings
because i am a joyful girl
