《The Jig Is Up》歌词

[00:00:00] The Jig Is Up (LP版) - Jill Sobule

[00:00:11] If I had a lot of money

[00:00:13] I'd move to another country

[00:00:16] I'd disappear not tell a soul

[00:00:19] I'd change my name

[00:00:21] Or maybe I'd go back to school

[00:00:24] Major in something foolish

[00:00:27] And I could do it 'cause

[00:00:28] I'd have a lot of money

[00:00:32] Here I am holding on to childhood's dream

[00:00:40] Sitting in my apple tree

[00:00:45] Swaying as the branches tremble under me

[00:00:53] The jig is up it's all been played

[00:00:56] The well is dry the bed's been made

[00:00:58] The jig is up the jig is up

[00:01:04] Maybe I could jump

[00:01:06] Jump off the brooklyn bridge

[00:01:09] But I don't live in brooklyn

[00:01:10] And I don't know how to swim

[00:01:14] Or I could find religion

[00:01:16] Go on some kind of mission

[00:01:19] Feed the poor and then I would go to heaven

[00:01:23] If I believed in heaven

[00:01:27] Here I am holding on to childhood's dream

[00:01:35] Standing on the balcony

[00:01:40] Waiting for someone to come and rescue me

[00:01:48] The jig is up the dance is done

[00:01:50] The record skips the song's been sung

[00:01:53] The troops have dwindled down to one

[00:01:55] The jig is up

[00:01:58] The jig is up the sun has set

[00:02:00] The train is wrecked the sheets are wet

[00:02:03] And like I said the jig is up

[00:02:08] Jig is up

[00:02:13] Jig is up

[00:02:18] Jig is up

[00:02:29] I can't really disappear

[00:02:32] 'Cause I don't have a lot of money

[00:02:34] And I don't really think I want to

[00:02:36] Go back to school

[00:02:40] But maybe I'm just in a bad mood

[00:02:42] And I need to change my attitude

[00:02:45] And when I wake up tomorrow

[00:02:46] I'll believe in heaven

[00:02:50] Here I am holding on to childhood's dream

[00:02:58] Climbing down the apple tree

[00:03:03] Waking as you pull the covers off of me

[00:03:11] The jig is up

[00:03:16] The jig is up

[00:03:21] Jig is up yes it's been tough

[00:03:23] The punch is drunk the shrink is shrunk

[00:03:26] It's time to get the baby up

[00:03:28] It's off to work let's start the car

[00:03:31] We'll turn it over in it's grave

[00:03:34] And start again it's soul to save

[00:03:36] The jig is up but so what

[00:03:39] We'll fill again this empty cup

[00:03:41] The jig is up the point's been made

[00:03:44] Elvis has just left the stage

[00:03:47] The story needs another twist

[00:03:49] And I have had enough of this
