JENNY'S SUCH A KLUTZ

On   YouTube,  performed  LIVE  by  MICK TERRY   (soon!)

JENNY is a sweet girl. You can see she was brought up well.
Polite, restrained and with good hygiene,
always in her seat 'fore the bell.
JENNY is a bright girl, but she rarely will show it off.
She studies hard and she gets straight A's
even though her home life is rough.

A  JENNY'S SUCH A KLUTZ,
    walking into doors, walking into walls.
    But we never see her stumble.
    We never see her fall.
    JENNY'S SUCH A KLUTZ,
    but only in her home.
    When she comes back into school next day,
    where are those bruises from?

JENNY is a cute girl when the bruises can fade away.
But it's not long 'til she's maroon.
"Cupboard door jumped out", she might say.
JENNY is a good girl, never speaks ill of anyone.
'Though my best friend, I don't understand
why she always walks home alone.

    CHORUS   A

        Black and blue and red and bruised,
        the blood spreads under the skin.
        Black and blue and red and bruised,
        but the worst hurt happens within.

JENNY had a step-dad I'm so glad that I didn't meet.
One day police took him far away
wearing cuffs & chains on his feet.
JENNY was my best friend and I really am feeling sad.
I'm not sure what happened in her house,
but I think it was something real bad.

B  JENNY'S SUCH A KLUTZ,
    walking into doors, walking into walls.
    But we never saw her stumble.
    We never saw her fall.
    JENNY'S SUCH A KLUTZ,
    but only in her home.
    She won't be coming back to school today.
    She had to go somewhere alone.
