Not Dying Today Lyrics - Tori Amos

Artist: Tori Amos

Album: Abnormally Attracted To Sin (2009)

There was a gambler and a cleaner and a puppeteer

only the puppet could explain just what he was

All on a bus we were hopin' to pass the time

plug my piece in boys then we can drink the wine

drink the wine drink the wine---

music, good friends, I'm not dyin' today.

I may be 6 feet under full of wonder

I'm not dyin' today

Dyin' today

I'm not dying mister

today

Neil is thrilled he can claim he's mammalian

"But the bad news," he said, "Girl, you're a dandelion."

Dandelion. hey I need to think about that.

Yeah, I thought about that and I said,

"What the Hell?"

He said, "Nope, you are Earth bound, blow them seeds away

maybe one will make a sound."

Make a sound, make a sound---

music, good friends,

I'm not Dyin" Today

I may be 6 feet under full of thunder,

I'm not Dyin' Today.

Dyin' today,

I'm not dying mister

today

So they got us go

goin' and comin'

Cause they make us pay

if we go or stay

Is he prayin'

that I'll pop my clogs?

If they can't prove I'm crazy

by noon I'll be pushin' up them daises

Tomorrow, with their Donut box they'll say,

"It's sad she's Brown Bread."

Hey, I got my weapons---

music, good friends,

I'm not Dyin' today.

I may be 6 feet under

way down yonder

I'm not Dyin' today

Dyin'

I'm not dying, sister, take your paws off

my ankle straps and my mister

Dyin' Fryin', rather have a lie-in

I am not blowin' that Gabriel's Trumpet

I got my own band to play today
