Jack & Jill |
LyricsJACK & JILL© 2015 Sahlen-Starburst You're my bedrock of Gibraltar, you're a nasty, sexy sort I would take you to the altar, a dream for me to court Surrender my possessions even give a limb or two I would be your love slave, I'd do anything for you (Chorus) When I saw you dancing uptown wearing just a feathered fan Almost found sublime commitment like a strangulated man Nearly reached a golden moment beyond fantasy fulfilled When I saw your feathered purpose, I was Jack and you were Jill You're my nightmare made in heaven; you're the best and worst of all Now I'm barely standing upright since I took the fatal fall You're the sizzling essence of the dream that makes me burn I would gladly sell my soul if you would love me in return (Chorus) When I saw you dancing uptown wearing just a feathered fan Almost found sublime commitment like a strangulated man Nearly reached a golden moment beyond fantasy fulfilled When I saw your feathered purpose, I was Jack and you were Jill Break Bridge We can scamper up the hillside; leave the water pail behind We don't need no fancy pleasures in this grown up nursery rhyme (Chorus) When I saw you dancing uptown wearing just a feathered fan Almost found sublime commitment like a strangulated man Nearly reached a golden moment beyond fantasy fulfilled When I saw your feathered purpose, I was Jack and you were Jill |
