Jeannie Nitro |
| Well she came round here and nobody could speak her name |
| And she talked in circles like she needed someone else to blame |
| And everybody prayed she would go back from where she came |
| The sun didn’t shine and for forty days all it did was rain |
| Well the lights burned out, and the circus they got out of town |
| And the priest’s last rites were the only words that could be found |
| The loverboys couldn’t tell the time 'cause the phones were down |
| The poets couldn’t find the words to describe the sound |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Came, she saw, she made them cry |
| Lost their hearts but don’t know why |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Spoke the words and begged to die |
| Sold her dream for you and I |
| Well the good girls danced with the devil in the open yard |
| (Jeannie, Jeannie, oh Jeannie, Jeannie) |
| But the blood from their thighs was the only thing that made him hard |
| (Jeannie, Jeannie, oh Jeannie, Jeannie) |
| She couldn’t read the signs on the wall where they had her scarred |
| She was the one time lover of a victim of the avant-garde |
| Well it was said she was raised by the praise of a furious man |
| (Jeannie, Jeannie, oh Jeannie, Jeannie) |
| But she couldn’t tell you how or when that it all began |
| (Jeannie, Jeannie, oh Jeannie, Jeannie) |
| A woman has to feel alive any way she can |
| She don’t plead dumb or pretend that she don’t understand |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Came, she saw, she made them cry |
| Lost their hearts but don’t know why |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Spoke the words and begged to die |
| Sold her dream for you and I |
| Well she came round here and nobody could speak her name |
| And she talked in circles like she needed someone else to blame |
| And everybody prayed she would go back from where she came |
| The sun didn’t shine and for forty days all it did was rain |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Came, she saw, she made them cry |
| Lost their hearts but don’t know why |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro |
| Spoke the words and begged to die |
| Sold her dream for you and I |
