Well stranger things are happening here I see the ghosts now in broad daylight And while the midnight boys continue their songs The reaper rolls his eyes Without a shadow of a doubt He says this party is a pale view Of what time slowly did to them And what I'm gonna do to you But Jane beat that reaper with a broomstick hard Ran that bag of bones across the whole front yard And she screams, no one takes a party from me No one takes a party from me No one takes a party from Jane No one takes a party from Jane She wore medallions on a string She said they warded off the boredom Of life alone and the constant sting Of what she was before him But stranger things have happened here She disappeared with every daybreak Her clockwork crisis never seemed so clear Her strung-out strife never seemed so fake But Jane dropped those trinkets in the ole Grand Isle And they sank with all her misery, her vacant smile Still she pleads, who can take this hurt out of me Who can take this hurt out of me But nothing takes the urge out of Jane Oh nothing takes the hurt out of Jane And her fate, she knows, is to wait so close At the gates of Hell until the day he calls So she spends her time pacing Purgatory That's all, yeah that is all Well she traded all her riches in for dime store rags Her mama tried her best to fill those shopping bags Still she screams, please don't waste your money on me Please don't waste your money on me Cause nobody could buy love from Jane She'll party in her rags all the same Well no one takes the party from Jane
