Poor Jenny
Through the people and throngs of bores
Came a message that got ignored
All's not merry and all's not right
When the wolves still howl through the night
But Jenny's crying overhead
A bare-laid plate, an empty bed
Would somebody just take her from this place
Someone who knows all the holes
To catch her when she's tripping up
Would somebody just take her far away
Not obsessive but not secure
She's imprisoned until the room is pure
Sound the trumpets we're gonna celebrate tonight
And you'll come along, and you'll have some fun
Instead of staring at the light
But Jenny's crying overhead
To news of bombs and blood that's shed
Would somebody just take her from this place
Someone who's not on a phone
Can help her when she's missing home
Would somebody just take her far away
Never mind
You looked for something you did not find
Found yourself with another kind
Of people who look like you
But it isn't so
Now you know something that they don't know
You'll take it with you further down the road
And you'll be better of than them
Jenny's crying overhead
Jenny's crying overhead
Oh Poor Jenny
Save a thought for Poor Jenny
Save a thought for Poor Jenny
Save a thought for Poor Jenny
Came a message that got ignored
All's not merry and all's not right
When the wolves still howl through the night
But Jenny's crying overhead
A bare-laid plate, an empty bed
Would somebody just take her from this place
Someone who knows all the holes
To catch her when she's tripping up
Would somebody just take her far away
Not obsessive but not secure
She's imprisoned until the room is pure
Sound the trumpets we're gonna celebrate tonight
And you'll come along, and you'll have some fun
Instead of staring at the light
But Jenny's crying overhead
To news of bombs and blood that's shed
Would somebody just take her from this place
Someone who's not on a phone
Can help her when she's missing home
Would somebody just take her far away
Never mind
You looked for something you did not find
Found yourself with another kind
Of people who look like you
But it isn't so
Now you know something that they don't know
You'll take it with you further down the road
And you'll be better of than them
Jenny's crying overhead
Jenny's crying overhead
Oh Poor Jenny
Save a thought for Poor Jenny
Save a thought for Poor Jenny
Save a thought for Poor Jenny
