Thank you
Clarissa Jones got bit on the heel by
A rat and she hit him with a broom
He ran to the corner and stood there
Grinnin' like he owned the goddamn room
Clarissa Jones threw an iron at the rat
And the rat just seemed to say "fine"
Twitched his tail in the corner and
Said "you gotta go to sleep sometime"
Clarissa Jones' kid aged sixteen hated his heavy old shoes
He wanted fine strides like the studs on the
Street and they'd know he'd been payin' his dues
Clarissa Jones' kid got busted, she was three days a gettin' the news
They gave him a shower, a meal and a uniform and too old-a heavy shoes
Clarissa Jones, where are you goin'?
It's cold and the wind is blowing through your bones
And where, where, where is your mind, Clarissa Jones?
Clarissa Jones carried bed pans, swept
Up change sheets and mopped the hall
Doctor said she was a very good worker, Clarissa Jones knew them all
Now, Clarissa Jones sits in her window with the
Paper readin' how they burned the next street flat
She's readin' 'bout the trouble, she ought to write
A letter sayin' "hey, it never happened like that"
Clarissa Jones, where are you goin'?
It's cold and the wind is blowing through your bones
And where, where, where is your mind, Clarissa Jones?
Mister William Hawkins rose early, shaved
Dressed carefully and drank his tea
He hit the desk at nine with thanks to the board of opportunity
On his very first day his boss went to
Great lengths to make him feel at home
And his first assignment was the dispossess on Miss Clarissa Jones
Clarissa Jones, where are you goin'?
It's cold and the wind is blowing through your bones
And where, where, where is your mind, Clarissa Jones?
Ah, where, where, where is your mind, Clarissa Jones?
Thank you
Thank you very much
