Jester & June Songtext
von Craig Finn

The bartender′s friend sold us something
I think was probably coriander
4th quarter, Hail Mary
Wide receiver, Hail Caesar
The guy we've been waiting for
Came up from the catacombs
Walked into the bathroom
Put it under the trashcan
And I went in after

Do you even remember?
They used to call us Junebug and Jester
They used to call us Jester and June
We used to have our own tune
We used to sing it in church
Then it got worse


We put too much faith
Gave too much cash
To that one creepy kid at the carwash
He said he could make a few calls
But I don′t think that he made any calls
Well, we probably should have tried the guy with the Dracula cape
Because other than the cape he was cool
He had that wild kind of sadness
Like he knew something important

I wonder if he even remembers
They used call us Junebug and Jester
They used to call us Jester and June
We were laughing making jokes
Laughing making jokes
Smiling in the smoke
They used to call us Junebug and Jester

We would drink and fall in love
Drink and fall in love
Fall around the clubs

They used to call us Jester and June
We used to know all the tunes
We used to have our own church
But then it got worse


Now honestly, officer
That's a really good question
I'm just kind of distracted
By those jangling handcuffs
And the flashlights in our eyes
Too much faith in desperate guys
Too much fun in eight straight summers

Do you remember Junebug and Jester?
Now we′re called Justin and Jane
We tried to push through the pain
We tried to work through the hurt
We tried to build our own church
Now the cops got our names as Justin and Jane /

The only people waiting at the carwash in the rain
The clubs have all changed
The buildings fell away
We were hoping that this corner might remember Junebug and Jester
