Mrs. Jones (Evelyn)

Mrs. Jones I know you caught me looking
Over the fence, across the yard, into your life
Ya I see that diamond ring
Shine on the sill above the sink
But the glimmer sure is dimmer in your eyes

And I know you're crying in that four-post bed at night
In a white silk gown and nobody by your side
With black mascara messing up those pretty eyes
I ain't' keeping up to nobody tonight
I ain't keeping up to nobody tonight

Well, hey there Mrs. Jones what's that you're dragging
A giant purse defines your worth in your mind
And older as you grow, throwing glitter on the ghost
Of a dimpled smile, little child lost in time

And I know you're crying in that four-post bed at night
In a white silk gown and nobody by your side
With black mascara messing up those pretty eyes
I ain't' keeping up to nobody tonight
No, I ain't keeping up to nobody tonight

Mrs. Jones whatever will you do
Michael Kors, Christian Dior, and Louis Vu
You're drowning in this stuff and it'll never be enough
Just filling holes with things and gold to get you through

I know you're crying in that four-post bed at night
In a white silk gown and nobody by your side
With black mascara messing up those pretty eyes
I ain't' keeping up to nobody tonight
I ain't keeping up to nobody tonight
