Cinco De Mayo Lyrics - Whip-smart - Liz Phair

Cinco de mayo, blowout, denial 

It wasn't fun this time, letting you go 

What if I never, a bullet forever 

Held out my hand to you? 

We wouldn't have known beautiful flow 

Absolute measure, I ain't no pleasure hound 

Bus out of control, ploughing the road 

Out on a bender 

Just Alice falling down a deepening hole 

I'd never been to Rome until you smiled 

You're about as old and piled 

Used to pray for snow 

Now I just wonder what spell I was under 

Thinking you thought of me as something to hold 

I'd never been to Rome until you smiled 

You're about as old and piled 

Cinco de mayo, burn-out Ohio 

It wasn't me this time letting you go
