“She says “Do I know you?” I say “Well, no, not biblically,
But I've been waiting for you to come and talk to me.
I have been playing too many of those boy-girl games.”
She says, “Honey, you are safe here. This is a girl-girl thing.””

Ani DiFranco (1970) musician and activist

'Haw, haw,' the girl said politely.”

“Girl, I don't want to fight,
I'm a little bit wrong,
And you're a little bit right.

It's a little bit me,
And it's a little bit you too.”
