[Jackie's Strength]
from the choirgirl hotel
liner

a Bouvier till her wedding day shots rang out the police came
mama layed me on the front lawn and prayed for Jackie's strength
feeling old by 21
never thought my day would come
my bridesmaids getting laid I pray for Jackie's strength
make me laugh
say you know what you want
you said we were the real thing
so I show you some more and I learn
what black magic can do
make me laugh
say you know you can turn me into the real thing
so I show you some more
and I learn
stickers licked on lunch boxes worshipping David Cassidy
yeah I mooned him once on Donna's box
she's still in recovery
sleepovers Beene's got some pot
you're only popular with anorexia so I turn myself inside out
in hope someone will see
make me laugh
say you know what you want you said we were the real thing
so I show you some more and I learn
what black magic can do
make me laugh
say you know you can turn
me into the real thing so I show you some more
and I learn
*whispers*
I got lost on my wedding day typical the police came
but virgins always get backstage no matter what they've got to say
if you love enough you'll lie a lot
guess they did it in camelot
mama's waiting on my front lawn
I pray I pray I pray
for Jackie's strength
