Sorry man sorry sorry I've got a bad eye
I shouldn't have, I should've looked at it
I should've looked at it go go away go away
The sugar star the sugar star and the, the abortionist and hey
You want her on the bed with her legs wide open and her eyes all spread

Sky's a narcotic with blackjack bones
Mrs. Jones aww Mrs. Jones aww
Cry me a river but just take me home
Oh, Mrs. Jones aww Mrs. Jones

Sorry man I gotta a gut slit me fucking ran away with my abortionist
My little eye blacked you know gizzed with
The knife they used to gut my face in
It's been out stabbing baby baby angels
Smile smile

The sky's a narcotic with black jack bones
Oh Mrs. Jones please Mrs. Jones my virus is raging
It's breaking my bones oh Mrs. Jones please Mrs. Jones

Die survive I will I will follow you down the sick drain
When I lean on the sink don't worry don't worry don't worry baby
You will you will never stink so bad whoa

Sorry man I'm sorry I shouldn't have looked at it I'm sorry man
You know I night blooming sickle cell your a night blooming sickle cell
Anyway anyway look into the blood root you suicide bitch
It takes an hour like you to make me wanna live

Sorry me I'm sorry man I'm sorry man wow
The skies a narcotic black jack bones oh
Mrs. Jones aww Mrs. Jones
Cute little doggy won't leave me alone
Mrs. Jones please Mrs. Jones
My virus is raging it's breaking my bones oh
Mrs. Jones please Mrs. Jones
Oh cry me a river baby just take me home
Oh Mrs. Jones aww Mrs. Jones

Sister ectoplasma she's incredulous
Just like a pro she takes off her dress
And she kicks you down in her snow white pumps
Just remember it was me who found the lump
Your why your yeah why yeah yeah yeah yeah hey hey
Shit shit yeah you oh yeah yeah yeah shit shit

East is east and west is west and mine was you and
Mine was the best
Yeah east and west is west mine was you and mine was
Mine was all Mrs Jones

Mrs. Jones yeah yeah don't ask me again
Don't ever talk to me like that again

    This song is twisted beyond words.

    Obviously surrealistic and has to do with a back-alley abortion. I feel like it's relaying a woman's guilt in the moments before she dies from the operation ("I will follow you down the sick drain" signifies either her guilt or acquiescence to the fact that she, like her unborn child, is going to die as well and follow them "down the sick drain"), but it's all so frenetic and disturbing that it's difficult to make clear sense of it all.

    Maybe the abortionist deliberately murders her? "Look into the bloodroot you suicide bitch" (the bloodroot being the fetus after its removal) sounds like it's coming from the abortionist maybe, or it could be from her directed at herself perhaps. Such disturbing imagery in this song though— the knife they used to "gut her face in" has been "out stabbing baby angels in". Fucking crazy writing here. Incredible I think, but the subject matter is just so grotesque, and her voice is so scary in it.

    I still don't know who "Mrs. Jones" is or represents, and I doubt Courtney Love does either, but it can definitely be agreed upon that abortion and horrible death live in this song.
