One of the few songs my wife listens to that I actually like. The music and the melody goes perfect with the lyrics. And IMO the lyrics are pretty true to life sometimes. I never get the lyrics stuck in my head. Just the musical part towards the middle. Give it a listen you'll see. > I'm gonna make a mistake I'm gonna do it on purpose I'm gonna waste my time 'Cause I'm full as a tick And I'm scratching at the surface And what I find is mine And when the day is done and I look back And the fact is I had fun Fumbling around All the advice I shunned and I ran Where they told me not to run But I sure had fun So I'm gonna fuck it up again I'm gonna do another detour Unpave my path And if you wanna make sense What you lookin' at me for? I'm no good at math And when I find my way back The fact is I just may stay Or I may not > I've acquired quite a taste For a well-made mistake I wanna make a mistake Why can't I make a mistake? > I'm always doing what I think I should Almost always doing everybody good Why? > Do I wanna do right? Of course But do I really wanna feel I'm forced to answer you? Hell no > I've acquired quite a taste For a well-made mistake I wanna make a mistake Why can't I make a mistake? > I'm always doing what I think I should Almost always doing everybody good Why? - [Source](https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/fionaapple/amistake.html) [Video](https://youtu.be/pokyLl-633o)
