The Joneses Lyrics


Keeping up with the Joneses, keeps you keeping out
As long as you have the will to get along
And what you do for you is never wrong
So don't you worry, don't you worryAnd I was never keen enough
As long as this time is still ticking on the clock
But when your pretty face won't be enough
Then I won't you want you won't to want toYou're wearing your corduroys and your diamond tooth
But you couldn't relate to the girl with the silver spoon
The lies that you're telling me are always true
It's true, you made a fool of me for believing youSo keeping up with the Joneses, keeps me hanging on
As long as I have the will to get along
And what I do for you is always wrong
But don't you worry, don't you worry'Cause I would never give it up
As long as this time's still ticking on the clock
But when your pretty face won't be enough
Now won't you want to won't you want toI love you the most when you are fast asleep
And whatever I do for you I'm still the creep
I realize that I'm not good enough

It's tough for sensitive men in a world that don't give a fuckSo keeping up with the Joneses, keeps me hanging on
As long as I have the will to get along
And what you do for you is never wrong
But don't you worry, don't you worry'Cause you would never give it up
As long as the time's still ticking on the clock
But when your pretty face won't be enough
Then I won't you want to won't you want toNow even your corduroys are faded through
And when you're walking away
Well, I think it's a better view the lies that you tell yourself
Are always true, so true
And you keep on talking till your face is blueKeeping up with the Joneses, Keeps you hanging on
As long as you have the will to get along
And what you do for you is never wrong
So don't you worry, don't you worryAnd I would never give it up
As long as this time's still ticking on the clock
But when your pretty face won't be enough
Now won't you, want you, won't you, want you
Don't you, want you, don't you, want to

Nine Days is a rock band which was popular in the early 2000s. Formed in Oyster Bay by John Hampson and Brian Desveaux, they released three albums independently during the 90s before their mainstream debut album, The Madding Crowd, was released in 2000. Their greatest popularity came from a handful of hits from The Madding Crowd such as "Absolutely (Story of a Girl)" and "If I Am".

Another album, So Happily Unsatisfied was scheduled for release in 2003. Unfortunately due to complications with their record label, Sony, this album was never actually released as the band was no longer in possession of the rights of the songs.

In 2006, Nine Days' official website updated with a statement that the album would finally see an actual release, but no other specifics were given.

After the split with Sony, the band released another album under their own record label. This album can be purchased at the bands website Nine Days Homepage.

Although the band is for the most part still together and perform occasional shows, both vocal artists, John Hampson and Brian Desveaux have pursued solo careers and their music is available for purchase from their websites respectively.

In mid-August 2006, Nine Days reunited and went back to the studio to record.[1] Slow Motion Life (Part One), a new EP with 6 songs, was released on January 19, 2007 and is available from their website. Part Two is planned for release in early summer 2007.

According to the Absolutely (Story of a Girl) Songfacts, Hampson ended up becoming a high school English teacher.
