Poor JJ Lyrics

Poor Jenny Jane

She's gone and thrown her bones down on the rocks again

And the stars seemed so unexpected

Nobody turned the camera on quite like you did

It was far too late for the lights to be on in the greenhouse

She had to duck and cover

And when the essay contest winner was announced

She moved back in with her mother, poor Jenny Jane

Poor Jenny Jane

Waived from the corner when the Fire Department came

And the stars organized against her

She had a ribbon from the local Freedom Chapter

Father, why are all the little children crying?

What kind of god would allow it?

It rips through my senses that the earth is slowly dying

The Family Name, you disavow it, poor Jenny Jane

Poor Jenny Jane

She broke my heart and I said it was just a sprain

And the stars were so unaffected

I guess what I did is no better than what you did

Gather my rosebuds and my favourite book of poems

I gotta hit the road now

I had the wrong number written on my palm

I hope that you'll miss me somehow, poor Jenny Jane

Could you take this feeling, mash it in a cup, make a Sunny Day?

Poor Jenny Jane
