Lyrics for Mr. Jones

Mrs. Jones is 17 and 6 and 24 Moderately pretty She is all the girls you know We are going far away We're going for a ride Mr. Jones has got a plan If you just come inside So good so far Slow down ha ha Movie stars and ads And radio define romance Don't turn it on I don't want to dance Mr. Jones is beautiful Your eyes are made of glass Looking through the window You can see the world go past Here's another 9 o'clock And here's another day Wonder how the weather is And what the people say So good so far Slow down ha ha Movie stars and ads And radio define romance Don't turn it on I don't want to dance Mr. Jones can turn you on And turn you off again Mr. Jones is all of you Who live inside a plan Put your head upon the pillow Never put it down That would only wake you up And turn your head around So good so far Slow down ha ha Movie stars and ads And radio define romance Don't turn it on I don't want to dance
