Artist/Band: Aimee Mann
Lyrics for Song: Jacob Marley's Chain
Lyrics for Album: Ultimate Collection [2000]



Well, today a friend told me this sorry tale

as he stood there trembling and turning pale

he said each day's harder to get on the scale

sort of like Jacob Marley's chain.



*** Verse 2:

But it's not like life's such a vale of tears

it's just full of thoughts that act as souvenirs

for those tiny blunders made in yesteryear

that comprise Jacob Marley's chain.



*** Bridge:

Well, I had a little metaphor to state my case

it encompassed the condition of the human race

but to my dismay, it left without a trace

except for the sound of Jacob Marley's chain.



*** Verse 3:

Now there is no story left to tell

so I think I'd rather just go on to Hell

where there's a snowball's chance that the personnel

might help to carry Jacob Marley's chain.



Help to carry Jacob Marley's chain x2
