Jack’s Mannequin
Miss Delaney
[Verse One]
Finally, I'm letting go
Of all my downer thoughts
In no time there'll be
One less sad robot
Looking for a chance to be
Something more than just metal

[Verse Two]
Now I'm going part time
With a film projectionist
And she's the vinyl queen
From my surfer dream
She likes the Beach Boys
More than radio metal
And she's so good
But, she's no good for me

[Chorus]
Oh, Miss Delaney
What's the matter?
You waited by the window
I waited by the door
Oh, Miss Delaney
Where's your boyfriend?
He isn't up in heaven, so
Why treat him like he's dead?
[Post-Chorus]
It's not that everyday
Everyday is coming up
With the green grass
But the times pass, when
I think of you
Whenever I'm at dinner

[Verse Three]
Finally
I've found someone to dull this lonely scene
I don't spend my nights searching for earthquakes
It's biblical how fucked my sleep can be
But she won't sleep with me

[Chorus]
Oh, Miss Delaney
What's the matter?
You waited by the window
I waited by the door
Oh, Miss Delaney
Where's your boyfriend?
He isn't up in heaven, so
Why treat him like he's dead
Like he's dead, like he's dead
[Bridge]
From here you can find everything
Arin, I
Would never lie to you

[Chorus]
Oh, Miss Delaney (Miss Delaney)
Whatcha sad for?
You waited by the window
And I was kicking down your door
Oh, Miss Delaney
Where's your boyfriend?
(Where's your boyfriend)
He isn't up in heaven, so
Why treat him like he's dead

Oh, Miss Delaney
