Liz Phair-Don't Have Time(Higher Learning)

I love her:)

Take a look around
This is what it's now
It's a little bridge now, baby
It's a little bridge now
Just a photograph
Kinda makes me laugh
It's a little kid now, baby
Some little kid

If I could solve your problems
What do you think I would be
One stupid seagull picking styrofoam up out of the sea?
Don't have time
Don't have time
Don't have time for all your problems
Why don't you solve them?

Take a look around
This is what it's now
It's a little bridge now, baby
It's a little bridge now
Just a photograph
Kinda makes me laugh
It's a little kid now
Pudgy, dumb little kid

If I could solve your problems
What do you think I would see?
All of my beautiful banquet receipts have been laid out for me
It's been played out for me

Don't have time for your fear, and your tea, and your queer little feats
And your joy, and your sweet little boy
And you're trapped in your sphere
I'm sorry but no one's home

I couldn't hear you, and now I think I've lost you
I could've made it easier and you would think that's good
Don't remember feeling older any worse than feeling wooden and alone
Wooden and alone

[philbio66]

Do you know how many times she was nominated? Did she ever win?

[terminite]

I dont know either

[Philip8510]

[terminite]

[xray50]

Simply put, one of the most brilliant songs Liz ever wrote or performed!

[mhotter]

I've been looking for this song for more than 10 years - thanks for posting! I'm not her biggest fan, but Liz has always had a gift for melody, I have to admit

@saintandrews83 I think because this song was on the Higher Learning soundtrack. Usually they dont put those songs from movie soundtracks on their albums. Sometimes they will, but a lot of times they wont.

How on earth did this song get Grammy recognition? Its so medicore

[olympiarockstar]

@philbio66 She was nominated twice for the same category. Once in 95 for Supernova and once in 96 for this song. Unfortunately, she did not win either. Idk how none of her albums were ever nominated.

@philbio66 She was nominated in the same category twice. Supernova was the other song nominated. She didn't win either unfortunately. :(

[saintandrews83]
