Jam for Jerry

You checked the mail and locked the door

You took the stairs downstairs from the third floor

You thought about her as you walked

Well did the sky open up above you in the dark

And what a note to leave with rent

Did you know what's coming or even half know it when you left

You set the tempo, set the pace

From the top, from the start, never slightly late

Just that afternoon we talked

Getting out, stepping out, let it out, something got caught

What about the time I heard you say

Were you only joking, or only half joking when you left

I get the feeling I've done

Something half wrong

It surrounds me and drowns me in it

If I could change it all I would

If only I could

You can quote me and hold me to it

We dropped our records at the scene

Writing numbers on our hands, out of batteries

Called the cops, called the car

Call a friend, call a relative still in the dark

Took the bridge in seconds flat

Call ahead to check in call ahead to ask them where they're at

I get the feeling I've done

Something half wrong

It surrounds me and drowns me in it

If I could change it all I would

If only I could

You can quote me and hold me to it

I get the feeling I've done

Something half wrong

It surrounds me and drowns me in it

If I could change it all I would

If only I could

You can quote me and hold me to it

You can quote me and hold me

You can quote me

You can quote me

You can quote me

You can quote

You can quote

You can hold me

You can hold me

You can hold me

You can hold can hold me

I get the feeling I've done

Something half wrong

It surrounds me and drowns me in it

If I could change it all I would

If only I could

You can quote me and hold me to it
