Still Got A "JONES?"
© 2001 Jesse Slokum



Well, you don't have any idea of who you really are
Or, what you would really be if you could wish upon a star
But, as far as I can see, you still got a "JONES"
Yes, as far as I can see, you still got a "JONES"

Make no bones about it, there's nothing here to dispute
"Rolling Stones" will shout it, if it's sexy, or the least bit cute
But, as far as I can see, you still got a "JONES"
Yes, as far as I can see, you still got a "JONES"

You say you're not into all those tabloid scenes - not like the "JONES"
Yet you keep up with the magazines - still got a "JONES"
Second stringers still pout like Jagger - still got a "JONES"
Drunken college louts still do stagger - still got a "JONES"
From tacky, tavern door boasting bouts, picking on sad looking do withouts
It's them, not you who are "living in sin..."

Ev'ry thing you have been sold, you say you need - not like the "JONES"
But Boesky did time for his greed - still got a "JONES"
Tell me, why have you put love on hold - still got a "JONES"
How many stars in the sky have to explode, before you learn to crack the code,
Of the Glory of the god within?

'Cause we're killing off the trees - even tearing up the earth,
Dumping our trash in the seas - I will ask you now, WHAT IS IT WORTH?
Yes, we're killing off the trees - even tearing up the earth,
Dumping our trash in the seas - I will ask you now, WHAT IS IT WORTH?
If you still got a "JONES" somehow, I will ask you now, WHAT IS IT WORTH?
Tell me, WHAT IS IT WORTH, this Planet EARTH!
Tell me, WHAT IS IT WORTH, this Planet EARTH!
(Repeat refrain, and fade...)
