Lyrics

Jane says I’m done with Sergio He treat me like a rag-doll She hides The television Says “I don’t owe him nothing, But if he comes back again Tell him to wait right here for me Or, Try again tomorrow”

I’m gonna kick tomorrow… I’m gonna kick tomorrow…

She get mad Starts to cry Take a swing man She can’t hit! She don’t mean no harm She just don’t know… (don’t know, don’t know) What else to do about it

Jane says Have you seen my wig around? I feel naked without it” She knows They all want her to go That’s ok man She don’t like them anyway Jane says she’s going away to Spain When she gets her money saved She’s gonna start tomorrow

I’m gonna kick tomorrow… Gonna kick tomorrow…

Jane goes To the store at 8:00 She walks up on St. Andrew’s She waits and gets her dinner there She pulls her dinner from her pocket Jane says she’s never been in love – no She don’t know what it is Only knows if someone wants her

I want them if they want me I only know they want me…

She get mad And starts to cry Take a swing man She can’t hit! She don’t mean no harm She just don’t know… (don’t know, don’t know) What else to do about it

Jane says… Jane says…

Songwriters: Perry Farrell and Eric Avery

I see double I see double everywhere I go, -where I go What, what, what, what do you know? Hey I see double I see double everywhere I go, -where I go What, what, what, what do you know? Hey I see double, I see double everywhere I go What, what, what, what do you know?

Na-na-na-na-na-na Hey, hey, hey, hey

I see double, I see double everywhere I go What, what, what, what do you know? Hey I see double I see double everywhere I go, -wherе I go What, what, what, what do you know? Hey I see double, I see double еverywhere I go Double, I see double everywhere I go Double, I see double everywhere I go, hey

Hey! ¡Escúchame! Hey! ¡O lárgate! Hey! ¡Escúchame! Hey! ¡O lárgate!
