Jason Lyrics
[Intro]
Ooh-ooh, ooh
[Verse 1]
Jason undressed me
Lying on his sheets
He did not do the same
Even his boots were on
Ooh-ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Clumsy, shakily
He ran his hands up me
He was afraid
Tears streaming down his face
Ooh-ooh, ooh
[Chorus]

Ooh-ooh, ooh
[Verse 4]

Breeders on CD
When we woke up
He just asked me to leave
Ooh-ooh, ooh
[Outro]
I stole twenty from his blue jeans
I'm pretty sure that he saw me

What else have the artists said about this song?
That song is very much a document of something that happened. It’s not an idea, it’s a story. Sometimes you connect with someone in a way that neither of you were expecting or even want to connect on that level. And then it doesn’t really make sense, but you’re able to give each other something that...
