about
We live in a world where everyone knows the dental state of 'Bradgelina's' next adoption case, but when it came to the anonymous 'Jane Doe' - a young girl with no name or face missing somewhere in the UK - no one gave a shit. Except us.
lyrics
Janey came home after school
She walked through the door just after four
The TV's on & Katie's stressed
She's gotta protect her little girl
Janey's mom is drinking again, she doesn't dare say another word
Tom is scowling, he's pissed and shouting,
He never could have ever seen it come
Janey's missing it's nothing new, she's always somewhere off ditching school
Harry's out getting drunk again, it's ok he's gonna make amends
No one knows where Janey is
This time her mom is looking really scared
At least we can count on Anchor Kimmy
She's never far and always pretty
Her bodies surfaced, Janey's dead. They say they're sorry, the words are read
The graphic's changing, the music too. Twilight's coming, it's number two
One week later, who can remember? We're all hooked on the next big thing
Jenny's back, and Brad's getting married, but when I ask I get a "Janey who?"
Do you know how Janey died
Or the names of all the housewives
And all the kids that hollywood buys
But not the girl who always smiles
She walked through the door just after four
The TV's on & Katie's stressed
She's gotta protect her little girl
Janey's mom is drinking again, she doesn't dare say another word
Tom is scowling, he's pissed and shouting,
He never could have ever seen it come
Janey's missing it's nothing new, she's always somewhere off ditching school
Harry's out getting drunk again, it's ok he's gonna make amends
No one knows where Janey is
This time her mom is looking really scared
At least we can count on Anchor Kimmy
She's never far and always pretty
Her bodies surfaced, Janey's dead. They say they're sorry, the words are read
The graphic's changing, the music too. Twilight's coming, it's number two
One week later, who can remember? We're all hooked on the next big thing
Jenny's back, and Brad's getting married, but when I ask I get a "Janey who?"
Do you know how Janey died
Or the names of all the housewives
And all the kids that hollywood buys
But not the girl who always smiles
