Kanga Roo

Jeff Buckley

When i first saw you

You had on blue jeans

Your eyes couldn't hide

Anything

I saw you

Breathing, oh

Saw you staring out in space

When i next saw you

You were at the party

Thought you was a queen

Oh, so flirty

I came against them

Didn't say excuse

Knew what i was doing

We looked very fine

As we were leaving

As we were making

What we were making

Saint John

You were a cool jerk

Oh, i want you

Like a kangaroo
