Biography

Born May 6, 1974 in New York City. She's an American singer-songwriter. A record deal with Elektra Records produced Davis' first two albums; Blame It on Me, which was chosen as one of Time's five best albums of 1997, and 2001's Fortune Cookies, which featured production by The Neptunes and Ed Tuton. Davis achieved a radio hit with the single "32 Flavors" from her debut album. The song is a cover version of a track written and previously recorded by Ani DiFranco. Blame It on Me stayed on the Billboard Top 200 for seven weeks, peaking at #157 in February 1998 and reaching sales of over 240,000 in the United States. "Murder", also from Blame It on Me, was sampled on Jay-Z's Vol. 3... Life and Times of S. Carter. After a guest appearance on the 1999 soundtrack to The Mod Squad, Davis left Elektra and signed a single deal with SME Records. She released the single "Carry On" on this label, and the song was featured in a Super Bowl commercial for Sony Electronics. Tired of major record labels, Davis went independent in 2005 and formed her own, label Tigress Records. She released a third album, Surrender Dorothy, on this label, which featured the single "Wide Open." In 2006, Davis toured with Thievery Corporation for a couple of dates as a guest vocalist.

LYRICS

You've got your home of the brave
And I've got my land of the free
You conform to what society says
And I conform to me
Looking for light in the corners
Getting caught in the spider web
You look at me as if I'm giving a performance
When I'm just feeding my head

And you know that I'm doing alright
And I won't explain myself to you just to avoid a fight
How I'm living ain't correct
But for me it's just right

I'm not completely insane
I'm maybe just a little bit crazy
There's no one to blame
Got no shame about my game
Don't want nobody to save me

I've got a pair of ruby slippers that
I don't wear much anymore
And if I had the nerve
I'd click my heels and return
To the wonderland I knew before
I'm waiting on a slow boat to China
Want to sail my way to the sun
I've been searching for myself
And I know I'm gonna find her
If I break away from everyone

So the way that I act may not fit in
Just because I've got a mind of my own
Doesn't mean its a sin
I don't ask you to give up
Don't expect me to give in

Cause I'm not completely insane
I'm maybe just a little bit crazy
There's no one to blame
Got no shame about my game
Don't want nobody to save me

I'll say it again
I'm just a little bit crazy
There's no one to blame
Got no shame about my game
Don't want nobody to save me

Some like to live for the moment
Taking life into their hands everyday
And if they don't get killed
They get so high off the thrill
They could float to Heaven anyway

And others want to save for tomorrow
Thinking money is security
Well I understand the need
But I don't get the greed
And they all seem pretty crazy to me

You can tell by the expression I wear
Though I seem a little strange to you
I don't really care I've got the freedom to be
And there are others like me everywhere...

I'm not completely insane
I'm maybe just a little bit crazy
There's no one to blame
Got no shame about my game
Don't want nobody to save me

I'll say it again
I'm just a little bit crazy
There's no one to blame
Got no shame about my game
Don't want nobody to save me
