[00:00.69]The Jig Is Up (LP版) - Jill Sobule
[00:11.26]If I had a lot of money
[00:13.78]I'd move to another country
[00:16.35]I'd disappear not tell a soul
[00:19.26]I'd change my name
[00:21.92]Or maybe I'd go back to school
[00:24.66]Major in something foolish
[00:27.11]And I could do it 'cause
[00:28.82]I'd have a lot of money
[00:32.97]Here I am holding on to childhood's dream
[00:40.50]Sitting in my apple tree
[00:45.67]Swaying as the branches tremble under me
[00:53.60]The jig is up it's all been played
[00:56.07]The well is dry the bed's been made
[00:58.68]The jig is up the jig is up
[01:04.04]Maybe I could jump
[01:06.66]Jump off the brooklyn bridge
[01:09.00]But I don't live in brooklyn
[01:10.50]And I don't know how to swim
[01:14.50]Or I could find religion
[01:16.76]Go on some kind of mission
[01:19.38]Feed the poor and then I would go to heaven
[01:23.88]If I believed in heaven
[01:27.68]Here I am holding on to childhood's dream
[01:35.39]Standing on the balcony
[01:40.67]Waiting for someone to come and rescue me
[01:48.24]The jig is up the dance is done
[01:50.74]The record skips the song's been sung
[01:53.26]The troops have dwindled down to one
[01:55.81]The jig is up
[01:58.62]The jig is up the sun has set
[02:00.95]The train is wrecked the sheets are wet
[02:03.61]And like I said the jig is up
[02:08.96]Jig is up
[02:13.97]Jig is up
[02:18.58]Jig is up
[02:29.77]I can't really disappear
[02:32.28]'Cause I don't have a lot of money
[02:34.80]And I don't really think I want to
[02:36.75]Go back to school
[02:40.31]But maybe I'm just in a bad mood
[02:42.63]And I need to change my attitude
[02:45.34]And when I wake up tomorrow
[02:46.90]I'll believe in heaven
[02:50.80]Here I am holding on to childhood's dream
[02:58.52]Climbing down the apple tree
[03:03.54]Waking as you pull the covers off of me
[03:11.25]The jig is up
[03:16.32]The jig is up
[03:21.41]Jig is up yes it's been tough
[03:23.76]The punch is drunk the shrink is shrunk
[03:26.25]It's time to get the baby up
[03:28.86]It's off to work let's start the car
[03:31.45]We'll turn it over in it's grave
[03:34.00]And start again it's soul to save
[03:36.55]The jig is up but so what
[03:39.09]We'll fill again this empty cup
[03:41.77]The jig is up the point's been made
[03:44.45]Elvis has just left the stage
[03:47.04]The story needs another twist
[03:49.52]And I have had enough of this
