Dressy Bessy – Half Jack Lyrics

Half Underwater
I'm half my mother's daughter
A fraction's left up to dispute.
The whole collection
Half off the price they're asking
In the halfway house of ill repute.

Half accidental
Half pain, full instrumental
I have a lot to think about.
You think they're joking
You have to go provoke him
I guess it's high time you found out.

It's half biology
and half corrective surgery
gone wrong.
You'll notice something funny
if you hang around here for too long
ago in some black hole
is where they had these pills to take it back.
I'm Half Jill
and Half Jack.

Two halves are equal
a cross between two evils.
It's not an enviable lot.
And if you listen,
You'll learn to hear the difference
between the Halves
and the Half-Nots.

And when I let him in,
I feel the stitches getting sicker.
I try to wash him out, but like she said,
"The blood is thicker."
I see my mother in my face,
but only when I travel,
I run as fast as I can run,
but Jack comes tumbling after.

And when I'm brave enough,
and find a clever way to kick him out,
and I'm so high that not even you and all your love could bring me down
on 83rd, he never found the magic words to change the fact,
I'm Half Jill,
and Half Jack.

I'm halfway home now,
Half hoping for a showdown,
'cause I'm not big enough to house this crowd.
It might destroy me,
but I'd sacrifice my body,
if it meant I'd get the Jack Part out.

See
Jack
Run
Jack
Run
Jack
Run.
