Hey Mr. Jones Songtext
von Jane Child

Nobody knows me like the monkey on my back
He? s got control now and I? ll never get it back
It? s a brutal attraction like a moth to a deadly flame
It? s a knee-jerk reaction, fall to my knees and beg

Just a still little voice, just a matter of choice
Just the mention of your name
Did it have to be me? Why did it have to be me?
The hunter is the game

Hey Mr. Jones, you led me on, hey, hey
Hey Mr. Jones, you did me wrong, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

He? ll never leave me and he? d rather see me dead
She has deceived me, I? m in way over my head
You appear every mornin′ and you scream when I try to sleep
You come on without warnin', watch laughin′ as I bleed

Why you fuckin' with me? Let me go I can? t breathe
Yes, the desperate have no shame
My insatiable need, my uncontrollable greed
The pleasure is the pain


Hey Mr. Jones, you led me on, hey, hey
Hey Mr. Jones, you did me wrong, hey, hey
Hey Mr. Jones, look what you did, hey, hey
Hey Mr. Jones, I? m just a kid, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Just look at me, I? m skin and bones
I sold my soul to Mr. Jones
Just look at me, I? m skin and bones
I sold my soul to Mr. Jones
(Hey Mr. Jones)

Just look at me, I? m skin and bones
(You led me on, hey, hey)
I sold my soul to Mr. Jones
(Hey Mr. Jones)

Just look at me, I? m skin and bones
(You did me wrong, hey, hey)
I sold my soul to Mr. Jones, Jones, Jones, Jones
(Hey Mr. Jones)

Just look at me, I? m skin and bones
I sold my soul to Mr. Jones
(Hey Mr. Jones)
Just look at me, I? m skin and bones
I sold my soul to Mr. Jones
(Hey Mr. Jones)


Just look at me, I? m skin and bones
I sold my soul to Mr. Jones
(Hey Mr. Jones)
Just look at me, I? m skin and bones
I sold my soul to Mr. Jones
(Hey Mr. Jones)

Just look at me, I? m skin and bones
I sold my soul to Mr. Jones
(Hey Mr. Jones)
Just look at me, I? m skin and bones
I sold my soul to Mr. Jones
(Hey Mr. Jones)
