Confession of Jack Bonnie and Sally Clyde
Come close my darlin' I must confess
My pearls are not real and I don't own this dress
My shoes are on loan, gloves a garbage can find
It's starting to feel like 1929
I'm not a countess like I had said
I don't own this mansion and I make the beds
I once lived a queen's life, now I'm just broke
My husband ran off with some other bloke
But through it all it's so clear to see
Earrings and bracelets don't serve the hearts needs
Although it be true, alas all's a game
The material world is to blame
Pardon me darlin' but this has to be
Empty your pockets and strip to your knees
My weapon is loaded so please don't be brash
Open your wallet and give me your cash
Even at the end of the day
When my heart cares not for what you can pay
The world still spins and sunrise will come
And life must go on and on and on, and on, and on
Even at the end of the day
When my heart cares not for what you can pay
The world still spins and sunrise will come
Life will go on
Lower your gun dear I must profess
I knew they were faux pearls and your clothes don't impress
In the same boat we sail so why not be
Partners a la Clyde and Bonnie
Now that all is said and done
We can join forces two as one
For deep in our hearts we found the key
Like Jack and Sally
We're meant to be
Now the charade is over and done
We will march forward two as one
For deep in our hearts we found the key
Like Jack and Sally
We're meant to be
My pearls are not real and I don't own this dress
My shoes are on loan, gloves a garbage can find
It's starting to feel like 1929
I'm not a countess like I had said
I don't own this mansion and I make the beds
I once lived a queen's life, now I'm just broke
My husband ran off with some other bloke
But through it all it's so clear to see
Earrings and bracelets don't serve the hearts needs
Although it be true, alas all's a game
The material world is to blame
Pardon me darlin' but this has to be
Empty your pockets and strip to your knees
My weapon is loaded so please don't be brash
Open your wallet and give me your cash
Even at the end of the day
When my heart cares not for what you can pay
The world still spins and sunrise will come
And life must go on and on and on, and on, and on
Even at the end of the day
When my heart cares not for what you can pay
The world still spins and sunrise will come
Life will go on
Lower your gun dear I must profess
I knew they were faux pearls and your clothes don't impress
In the same boat we sail so why not be
Partners a la Clyde and Bonnie
Now that all is said and done
We can join forces two as one
For deep in our hearts we found the key
Like Jack and Sally
We're meant to be
Now the charade is over and done
We will march forward two as one
For deep in our hearts we found the key
Like Jack and Sally
We're meant to be
