Zero or a Zillion

Kimya Dawson

Yeah, mother fucker! Kimya Fucking Dawson!
What put your fucking hands down!

As I sit and listen to
A kid you clearly influenced
I text and say I'm glad that you're my friend
(Yay) then leave another perfect time show
Feeling inspired and powerful
"The Ghost of Corporate Future" in my head
(my fucking head)
And as I count the ways that I've
Said "fuck you" to the man
I don't care who thinks that
I've sold out or not (I don't care)
Since going barefoot I feel better
That Regina fucking Spektor is a name
I'll never be ashamed to drop (Go Regina)
I saw that little weirdo walk
Into the open mic
Sit down shyly at the piano and then start
(Wow)
Singing songs we'll start to knowing, silly
Sad and so mind blowing
They were undeniably straight from the heart
(Right from the heart)

And the music it doesn't change
No, the songs remain the same
Whether there are zero people or there are a
Zillion people in the world who are listening
Yeah, the music it doesn't change
No, the songs remain the same
Whether there are zero people or there are a
Zillion people in the world who are listening

I have a friend named Eva, seventeen
She's a soprano
She sings opera with a voice
That makes me cry (cry)
But she sings in competitions and the
Kids at school give her shit
I wish that she could sit
Back and close her eyes (eyes)
And feel the vibration of her
Voice inside her chest
Without worrying about who thinks that
-who thinks who's the best (the best)
While at time when there are people
Who think that it's not enough
And there are people who think
That I've went too far (too far)
All I ever wanted was to not feel suicidal
And I traded in my meds for a guitar
There's so much depression
Nowadays in adolescents
And with all the social
Pressure that makes sense
But music shouldn't be the problem
Music should be the solution
And only a positive experience (experience)

Because the music it doesn't change
No, the songs remain the same
Whether there are zero people or there are a
Zillion people in the world who are listening
No, the music it doesn't change
No, the songs remain the same
Whether there are zero people or there are a
Zillion people in the world who are listening
(tell 'em)

I have a friend named Johnny D
His band is Tin Tree Factory
Everything he does is gold to me
And it's on archive dot org for free, yes!
W w w dot-a-r-c-h-iv-e dot-o-r-g
I like sittin' on the
Floor watchin' Johnny play
On his knees, on a carpet not on a stage
In front of a fire, in a living room
Cozy and warm full of potluck food
But if one day suddenly Johnny got huge
I'd be glad that you knew Johnny too (Johnny)
His songs are smart, important, brave
Wanting that all to myself
Would be totally lame (lame)
I don't claim to be Regina's only true fan
Just because I knew her way back when
And if you think Cat Stevens
Couldn't be my god
'Cause I heard him first in Harold and Maude
I bought all his albums i listened, I cried
Teaser and the Firecat changed my life
I painted a firecat on my jean jacket
Drew peace trains on my homework packet
I'm still listening to "The Wind
(of my Soul) " and I'm a hard headed woman
So I've been told yeah, music's just sound
We're just ears
Why are you affected by what who hears?
If Michael Jackson's hit's make
Him less sacred
Then you taking your clothes off
Makes me less naked when what each preach
I'll make it or break it
Do you wanna abstain? (Uhno?)
Repeat after me

You can like what you like
(You can like what you like)
And let them like what they like
(And let them like what they like)
You can like what you like
(You can like what you like)
And let them like what they like
(And let them like what they like)

Boom boom boom-shaka-shaka-shaka boom
Boom boom boom-shaka-shaka boom boom
And they and they like, like like it!

I love you, Mikey!
