The Jig Is Up (LP版) - Jill Sobule[00:00:00]
If I had a lot of money[00:00:11]
I'd move to another country[00:00:13]
I'd disappear not tell a soul[00:00:16]
I'd change my name[00:00:19]
Or maybe I'd go back to school[00:00:21]
Major in something foolish[00:00:24]
And I could do it 'cause[00:00:27]
I'd have a lot of money[00:00:28]
Here I am holding on to childhood's dream[00:00:32]
Sitting in my apple tree[00:00:40]
Swaying as the branches tremble under me[00:00:45]
The jig is up it's all been played[00:00:53]
The well is dry the bed's been made[00:00:56]
The jig is up the jig is up[00:00:58]
Maybe I could jump[00:01:04]
Jump off the brooklyn bridge[00:01:06]
But I don't live in brooklyn[00:01:09]
And I don't know how to swim[00:01:10]
Or I could find religion[00:01:14]
Go on some kind of mission[00:01:16]
Feed the poor and then I would go to heaven[00:01:19]
If I believed in heaven[00:01:23]
Here I am holding on to childhood's dream[00:01:27]
Standing on the balcony[00:01:35]
Waiting for someone to come and rescue me[00:01:40]
The jig is up the dance is done[00:01:48]
The record skips the song's been sung[00:01:50]
The troops have dwindled down to one[00:01:53]
The jig is up[00:01:55]
The jig is up the sun has set[00:01:58]
The train is wrecked the sheets are wet[00:02:00]
And like I said the jig is up[00:02:03]
Jig is up[00:02:08]
Jig is up[00:02:13]
Jig is up[00:02:18]
I can't really disappear[00:02:29]
'Cause I don't have a lot of money[00:02:32]
And I don't really think I want to[00:02:34]
Go back to school[00:02:36]
But maybe I'm just in a bad mood[00:02:40]
And I need to change my attitude[00:02:42]
And when I wake up tomorrow[00:02:45]
I'll believe in heaven[00:02:46]
Here I am holding on to childhood's dream[00:02:50]
Climbing down the apple tree[00:02:58]
Waking as you pull the covers off of me[00:03:03]
The jig is up[00:03:11]
The jig is up[00:03:16]
Jig is up yes it's been tough[00:03:21]
The punch is drunk the shrink is shrunk[00:03:23]
It's time to get the baby up[00:03:26]
It's off to work let's start the car[00:03:28]
We'll turn it over in it's grave[00:03:31]
And start again it's soul to save[00:03:34]
The jig is up but so what[00:03:36]
We'll fill again this empty cup[00:03:39]
The jig is up the point's been made[00:03:41]
Elvis has just left the stage[00:03:44]
The story needs another twist[00:03:47]
And I have had enough of this[00:03:49]
