[Helen Marnie with Mira Aroyo:]
Straight lines that cut through the scene like you wanted to
Blue jeans
Soft loans that spent all last summer buying drinks for you
Blue jeans

Left hand that crashed near your house in the ice and snow
Blue jeans
A face outside sleeping pressed against the bay window
Blue jeans

You've been trying to protect me
An insect living in your memory
Don't, blue jeans won't cut at the seams
Like you want them to

You won't need me to show the way
Now they're onto you
Blue jeans
And I won't be phoning you today
Unless you want me to
Blue jeans

You've been trying to protect me
An insect living in your memory
Don't, blue jeans won't cut at the seams
Like you want them to
You've been trying to protect me
An insect living in your memory
Don't, blue jeans won't cut at the seams
Like you want them to

You've been trying to protect me
An insect living in your memory
Don't, blue jeans won't cut at the seams
Like you want them to
