Lyrics
Jane Doe
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Put on your coat, put on your hat
Say goodbye to your welcome mat
Forget your bag, forget yourself
Forget the lines you knew so well
So brace yourself and open up the door
Because it's everybody for themselves
Well, here we go, yeah here we go
You can't say yes you can't say no
You lose your mind you lose your way
You lose your temper every day
And you wonder why you always have to fight
For such an ordinary life
Jane doe, let it go quiet over there
Jane doe, puppet show
Wash it from your hair
Don't forget to say a prayer
And as you dive into the street
Your tiny feet don't touch the ground
You got no say, you got no choice
Can't here your voice above the crowd
So here we go, yeah here we go
You can't say yes, you can't say no
You got no time, you got no space
There is no hiding in this place
But don't you let it take your breath away
It's just an ordinary day
Jane doe, let it go quiet over there
Jane doe, puppet show
Wash it from your hair
Don't forget to say a prayer
So here we go, yeah here we go
You can't say yes, you can't say no
