Jenny Jenny
(words and music by Joe Jackson)

Every time I think of you
Yeah, even this much later
I wish there was something I could do
But I guess you're still the same
You do almost anything but stop the fight
Never surrender, you just tough it out all night

And I think of the little things we used to do
And I think of the way that he's been treating you
And I'll ask you once again
Jenny Jenny, what happened to you?
How can you stand for what you put yourself through?
And I think of the little things we used to do
And I think of the way that he's been treating you
And I'll ask you once again
Jenny Jenny, what happened to you?

With your picture in my hand
I don't even know what I'm feeling
I'll stop trying to understand
I just wish I could reach out to you
Reach out so far across the sea
And sometimes as the baby sleeps I know you think of me

And you think of the little things we used to do
And you can't understand the way he's treating you
So I'll ask you once again
Jenny Jenny, what happened to you?
How can you stand for what you put yourself through?
When I think of the way we always used to be
And you know that he'll never love you more than me
So I'll ask you once again
Jenny Jenny, what happened to you?
