THE NEW PORNOGRAPHERS LYRICS - Jackie

"Jackie"



Jackie, you yourself said it best when you said

There's been a break in the continuum

The United States used to be lots of fun

Back when the man and the myth

Of the sands and the cliffs

Composed a symphony to good works and better business



Jackie, you yourself said it best when you said

One day we'll look upon a washed up atlantic

Get our kicks on an ocean of antics

And making history has never been so easy



So visualize success but don't believe your eyes

There's a world of wisdom and pain to despise

And when people get paid just to set you straight it means...



...are you gonna start the sunshine?

(Who is gonna stop the sunshine?)

and you're gonna start the sunshine

(Who is gonna stop the sunshine?)



Visualize success

Visualize success

Visualize success but don't believe your eyes

What is a version of the world without the will to despise it?

And when people get paid just to set you straight it means...



Jackie

(Hey, hey)

Jackie

(Hey, hey)
