The Dresden Dolls Lyrics

"Half Jack" lyrics



Half underwater
I'm half my mother's daughter
A fraction's left up to dispute

Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.

The whole collection
Half off the price they're asking
In the halfway house, I will repute

Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.
Ah-ah, uh-oh (X3)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah.

Half accidental
Half pain full instrumental
I have a lot to think about

Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.
You think they're joking
You have to go provoke him
I guess it's high time you found out

Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.

It's half biology
And half corrective surgery gone wrong
You'll notice something funny
If you hang around here for too
Long ago in some black hole
Before they had these pills to take it back
I'm half Jill
And half Jack !

Uh-oh, Oh Oh! (x3)
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.

Uh-oh , Oh Oh! (x3)
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.

Two halves are equal
A cross between two evils
It's not an enviable lot

Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.
But if you listen
You'll learn to hear the difference
Between the halfs and the half nots

Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.

And when I let him in
I feel the stitches getting sicker
I try to wash him out
But like they say
The blood is thicker
I see my mother in my face
But only when I travel
I run as fast as I can run
But Jack comes tumbling after

And when I'm brave enough
And find a clever way to kick him out
And I'm so high not even you
And all your love could bring me down
On 83rd he never found
The magic words to change this fact
I'm half Jill
And half jack

Uh-oh , Oh Oh! (x3)
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.

Uh-oh , Oh Oh! (x3)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah.

I'm halfway home now
Half hoping for a showdown
'Cause I'm not big enough to house this crowd

Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.

It might destroy me
But I'd sacrifice my body
If it meant I'd get the Jack part out

See (see) jack run (run)
Jack run (run) jack
See (see) jack see (see)
Jack (Jack) run (run) Jack
Run (run) Jack see (run)
Jack (jack) see (see) Jack (Jack)
Run (run) Jack (Jack) run (run)
Jack (Jack) see (see) Jack (Jack)
See (See) Jack (Jack) run (run)
Jack (Jack) run (run) Jack (Jack)

Run Jack run
