"Some people, they like to go out dancin' And other people, they have to work ... And there's even some evil mothers Who'll tell you everything is just dirt You know that women never really faint That villains always blink their eyes, ooh That children are the only ones who blush And that life is just to die But anyone who ever had a heart They wouldn't turn around and break it And anyone who ever played a part Oh, they wouldn't turn around and hate it ... They say Jane, Sweet Jane, oh woah, Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane Heavenly wine and roses seem to whisper to her, hey, when she smiles"
