Jack & Jane lyrics

Jack and Jane, well they were quite insane

But did you think that I really cared

Though they tried to get me to insinuate

I couldn't follow them anywhere

Because they weren't ever really there

Oh high and low the little junkies go

But did you hope to get me involved

Even though they follow you most every where

I couldn't talk to them even if I tried

You know they can't see with their eyes open wide

Everybody that you knew was from a book you read

Since they never lived how could you make them dead

Everybody that you knew was from a book you read

Since they never lived how could you make them dead

So it goes, I'm right behind my nose

I follow it wherever it leads

Takes me places no one ever would believe

But they can't follow me even if they try

It's like a camel through a needle's eye

Everybody that you knew was from a book you read

Since they never lived how could you make them dead
