lyrics
Janie doesn't know
what Janie doesn't say
Janie wants to take us back
Janie doesn't see
what Janie doesn't understand
Janie wants to dress it up
Janie doesn't watch
Janie doesn't listen
Janie doesn't learn
she just pretends
Her pulpit's in the pitch
So Janie doesn't get it
Janie loves to walk away
Janie loves to dance
Janie loves to fuck
Janie sleeps to distant heartbeats
Janie likes to lose her caution to the drink
Janie's thinking thinner
She wants to get sick
Janie's daddy's calling
Janie wants to go inside
Janie wants a genocide
what Janie doesn't say
Janie wants to take us back
Janie doesn't see
what Janie doesn't understand
Janie wants to dress it up
Janie doesn't watch
Janie doesn't listen
Janie doesn't learn
she just pretends
Her pulpit's in the pitch
So Janie doesn't get it
Janie loves to walk away
Janie loves to dance
Janie loves to fuck
Janie sleeps to distant heartbeats
Janie likes to lose her caution to the drink
Janie's thinking thinner
She wants to get sick
Janie's daddy's calling
Janie wants to go inside
Janie wants a genocide
