Next in our Slice of Lime musical series is Alanis Morissette. I've been rediscovering her lately. I didn't connect with her so much when she first got big but lately...yeah, much more so. I like this one and it lends itself to coming up with obvious pictures (good for a frazzled brain). And hey, this whole set stars Janita (my formerly mangled left-arm for the new folks out there), which is a miracle all by itself.

I'm broke but I'm happy
I'm poor but I'm kind
I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah
I'm high but I'm grounded
I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost but I'm hopeful baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everthing's gonna be fine fine fine
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five
I feel drunk but I'm sober
I'm young and I'm underpaid
I'm tired but I'm working, yeah
I care but I'm restless
I'm here but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite alright
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other is flicking a cigarette
What is all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving the peace sign
I'm free but I'm focused
I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly baby
I'm sad but I'm laughing
I'm brave but I'm chicken shit
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby
What it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is playing the piano
What it all comes down to my friends
Is that everything's just fine fine fine
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab...

(For those of you wondering about yesterday's field trip I hope to have a report up tomorrow. I prepared this Slice of Lime last week when I had the idea. Last night I was way too fried to get a post together about the field trip when I got home. Good day though.)

ReplyDeleteA jagged game of....
ReplyDeleteYAHTZEE!!!!!!!!!
Michelle...I really liked these pics...G
xox
lol, g-man. You beat me to it...this time. :D
ReplyDeleteGreat pics, Lime. I just love black and whites. :D
Very illustrative, well done!
ReplyDeleteone hand to another: thumbs up!
ReplyDeleteall i have to do is hear the word "zip line" - doesn't matter where or who says it - and i have sympathy pains for you.
ReplyDeletebtw...about the field trips? you win. at least we had charter busses and were indoors most of the day. no one got sick that i know of.
and larva? very appropriate :)
you know what's weird, i want to photograph my piano, but i want to wait until i get it tuned first.
ReplyDeleteI knew there was something I needed to ask you, but had slipped my mind! Have you picked up the guitar lately? Any good? Less pain?
ReplyDeleteVery nicely done, Lime!
ReplyDeleteHave an awesome day.
She's one of my favorites...great fotos...even the tie-dyed looks kewl in B&W
ReplyDeleteawe I love that song!!! :)
ReplyDeletecuteness!
This is one of my favorite "Slice of Lime"'s.
ReplyDeleteHmm, that may or may not be grammatically correct?
And how funny is it that you were talking about termite farts!! Your house has got to be a laugh a minute!! :)

Well, I didn't enjoy reading about the time you broke your arm, but I certainly did enjoy the way this post revealed another layer of Lime.
ReplyDeleteI have always thought that Alanis rocked the world!
Looks like Juanita is doing better each time we see her.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics Lime and a great song.
Have a great day!
I love Alanis' lyrics. I think she's coming out with a new album too.
ReplyDeleteThe photos intermingled with the lyrics are awesome. I could so see a series of these made into a coffee table book.
Hand is looking better - yay. Nice photo shoot - I WANT YOUR TIE DYE. Alanis has her moments... a like a few of her songs.
ReplyDeleteHow do you know about termite farts anyway?
I remember her singing " Thank you India" in the nude!
ReplyDeleteI like her music too!
Glad to see Janita is looking so good and functioning so well these days, Michelle! I have to say, you tend to do things in a BIG way when you do them!
ReplyDeleteFunny, when I have one hand in my pocket, I could usually care less what my other hand is doing... ;-)
I'm fascinated by Mona being in the nude when she remembers Alanis singing "Thank You, India". That's pretty HOT!! ;-)
Considering what you did, your mangled limb turned out pretty darn well!
ReplyDeleteGreat pics at just the right moment, but I liked the 2nd and 4th pics best.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Alanis! Great choice of song. Nice photos as well! :)
ReplyDeleteHUGS...
Great song. I have a few of her tunes on my iPod, but not this one. Looks like I need to go spend a buck to get it.
ReplyDeleteGreat set of photos with the lyrics. And I went back and read the arm-mangling story. Yeouch!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE this song and your added photographs just make it that much more wonderful!
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
Oh I love that song! Great pictures to go with it too.
ReplyDeleteWell done sweet~! :)
ReplyDeleteMy daughter introduced and talked me into buying that cd many moons ago and I was hooked :)
Who knows where to download XRumer 5.0 Palladium?
