Jeane

[Verse 1]
Jeane
The low-life has lost its appeal
And I'm tired of walking these streets
To a room with its cupboard bare
Jeane
I'm not sure what happiness means
But I look in your eyes
And I know that it isn't there

[Chorus 1]
Oh, we tried, we failed
Oh, we tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried

[Verse 2]
Oh, Jeane
There's ice on the sink where we bathe
So how can you call this a home
When you know it's a grave
Yet you still have that greedy grace
As you tidy the place
But it will never be clean, Jeane

[Chorus 1]
Oh, we tried, we failed
Oh, we tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
Oh, we tried

[Verse 3]
Cash on the nail
It's just a fairy tale
And I don't believe in magic anymore, Jeane
But I think you know
I really think you know
I think you know the truth, Jeane

[Verse 4: Sandie Shaw & Morrissey]
(No-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
No heavenly choirs
Not for me and not for you
Because I think that you know
I really think you know
I think you know the truth, Jeane
(Oh, oh)

[Chorus]
That we tried and we failed
That we tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
Oh, we tried
