The Best Of Jill Hives |
| Paid up, weathered, and type-O |
| Clad in gladstone, watch him go |
| Swimming 'neath the microscope |
| Hello lonely, bless the nation |
| Mister skip to all or none |
| Wooden soldiers fall upon |
| Try to find what makes her tick |
| While they’re finding out what makes them sick |
| I don’t know where you find your nerve |
| I don’t know how you choose your words |
| Speak the ones that suit you worst |
| Keep you grounded, sad, and cursed |
| Circle the ones that come alive |
| Save them for the best of Jill Hives |
| Been around and left you flat |
| Tragically decided that |
| Every child of God’s a brat |
| And she’s dying to escape them |
| But do we really need to see |
| All her punchdrunk history? |
| And which of it might hold the key |
| For the exit to her destiny? |
| I don’t know where you get your nerve |
| I don’t know how you choose your words |
| Speak the ones that suit you worst |
| Keep you grounded, sad, and cursed |
| Circle the ones that come alive |
| Save them for the best of Jill Hives |
| I don’t know where you find your nerve |
| I don’t know how you choose your words |
| Speak the ones that suit you worst |
| Keep you grounded, sad, and cursed |
| Circle the ones that come alive |
| Save them for the best of Jill Hives |
| Number one in all our souls |
| Trifle in a crystal bowl |
| Fill it up with nine to five |
| Save them for the best of Jill Hives |
