[Verse 1]
Jessie is a friend
Yeah I know she's been a nurse friend of mine
But lately something’s changed that ain't hard to define
Jessie's got herself a pen and I want to make it mine
And I’m watching her when she writes
And she's doodling with that black ink, I just know it
Yeah ‘n she's charting so smoothly late, late at night
[Chorus 1]
You know
I wish that I had Jessie's pen
I wish that I had Jessie's pen
Where can I find a ballpoint like that?
[Verse 2]
I play along with the charade
She even got it with the optional wood grain
You know, I feel so dirty when she leaves it in the room
I wanna creep on up and steal it
But the point is probably moot
‘Cuz she's watching me with those eyes
And she's suspicious of doctors, I just know it
And she's holding it in her hands late, late at night
[Chorus 2]
You know
I wish that I had Jessie’s pen
I wish that I had Jessie’s pen
Where can I buy a Pilot like that
Like Jessie's pen
I wanna have Jessie’s pen
Where can I find a ballpoint
I'll never find a ballpoint like that
[Verse 3]
And I'm writin' all these scripts all the time
Wondering why pharmacy can’t read ‘em
I've been out of ink, I been running dry
This ain't the way a pen's supposed to be
[Rock Interlude (Tubular 80's Piano Solo)]
Tell me, where can I find a ballpoint like that
[Chorus 3]
You know, I wish that I had Jessie's pen
I wish that I had Jessie's pen
I want Jessie's pen
I'll never find a ballpoint like that
Like Jessie's pen
I wanna steal Jessie's pen
I want, I want Jessie's pen
[Outro]
So smooth...
