Selfish Jean
Cheers, thanks for everything
You hung me up by my heart
You're just so selfish, Jean
Yes, you are
Hey, you threw it all away
By holding everything in
Hey Jean, don't rock the boat
When you can't swim
Well, a perfect understanding of the finer things in life
A quite alarming knack of knowing when to twist the knife
Ah-ah, selfish Jean
Here's to you, who had everything
And left it out on the shelf
There's no one else to blame
Except yourself
Well, a perfect combination of good etiquette and charm
You keep the chocolate biscuits wired to a car alarm
Ah-ah, selfish Jean
But I'm standing on my own
And this house is not a home
So sad to see you go
Things are high and things are low
And it's good to know you know
If you got nowhere to go
Well, you could spend the night with me
There will be no guarantee that I'll be here
In the morning
Or any time that you call
I hear you snoring, Jean
Through the wall
So hey, here's to everything
To peace and love in our time
Ah Jean, the slate is clean
I guess we're fine
Well, I don't expect a miracle, not asking you to change
If you can't see me happy, well, just look the other way
Ah-ah, selfish Jean
Ah-ah, selfish Jean
Jean
Jean
You hung me up by my heart
You're just so selfish, Jean
Yes, you are
Hey, you threw it all away
By holding everything in
Hey Jean, don't rock the boat
When you can't swim
Well, a perfect understanding of the finer things in life
A quite alarming knack of knowing when to twist the knife
Ah-ah, selfish Jean
Here's to you, who had everything
And left it out on the shelf
There's no one else to blame
Except yourself
Well, a perfect combination of good etiquette and charm
You keep the chocolate biscuits wired to a car alarm
Ah-ah, selfish Jean
But I'm standing on my own
And this house is not a home
So sad to see you go
Things are high and things are low
And it's good to know you know
If you got nowhere to go
Well, you could spend the night with me
There will be no guarantee that I'll be here
In the morning
Or any time that you call
I hear you snoring, Jean
Through the wall
So hey, here's to everything
To peace and love in our time
Ah Jean, the slate is clean
I guess we're fine
Well, I don't expect a miracle, not asking you to change
If you can't see me happy, well, just look the other way
Ah-ah, selfish Jean
Ah-ah, selfish Jean
Jean
