Jenny And Maurice by Paint
Jenny And Maurice lyrics
VERSE 1:
Sittin� on cement on Carrall Street Maurice.
Three papers heroin and speed, waitin� for daddy.
Jail was always more forgiving � every sunrise makes it
worth living.
From the ground he looks up to heaven but high rises
gleam.
CHORUS 1:
�Here I am in my disparity. You can have my life if you
can make it.
Spare a little bit of your charity?�
VERSE 2:
Jenny in a condo, waterfront, loungin� on snakeskin.
Martini, T3, Tramacet... Daddy�s gone again.
CHORUS 2:
�Look at me in my prosperity. You can have my life if
you can fake it.
I don�t waste my time on charity. You can have my life
if you can break it...
INTRO (CHORUS AD-LIB):
...If you make it. If you an take it. If you can fake
it.
Come on and take a hit!�
BRIDGE:
Jenny crosses town on the rarest day, runs into
Maurice.
�Lady, could you spare some charity before you call the
police?�
They carry on, neither turns around � hope to never see
the other again.
Twenty steps away, they say, �You may be just like
me...�
CHORUS 3:
�Here I am in my disparity. You can have my life if you
can make it.
Spare a little bit of your charity? You can have my
life if you can take it.�
�Look at me in my prosperity. You can have my life if
you can fake it.
I don�t waste my time on charity. You can have my life
if you can break it...
INTRO (CHORUS AD-LIB):
...If you make it. If you an take it. If you can fake
it.�
�You wanna take a hit?!?�
�You wanna take a hit?!?�
