What's the matter Mary Jane, you had a hard day

As you place the don't disturb sign on the door

You lost your place in line again, what a pity

You never seem to want to dance anymore



It's a long way down

On this roller coaster

The last chance streetcar

Went off the track

And you're on it



I hear you're counting sheep again Mary Jane

What's the point of trying' to dream anymore

I hear you're losing weight again Mary Jane

Do you ever wonder who you're losing it for



Well it's full speed baby

In the wrong direction

There's a few more bruises

If that's the way

You insist on heading



Please be honest Mary Jane

Are you happy

Please don't censor your tears



You're the sweet crusader

And you're on your way

You're the last great innocent

And that's why I love you



So take this moment Mary Jane and be selfish

Worry not about the cars that go by

All that matters Mary Jane is your freedom

Keep warm my dear, keep dry



Tell me

Tell me

What's the matter Mary Jane
