Hey Joanne, you lit the fire under the pan
Hey Joanne, you said let's stick it to the man
I was crushed when I read your letter
Now you say you were only teasing me
Now I so wish I could go you one better
But I give up too easily
Hey Joanne, there've been some changes to the plan
Hey Joanne, we only can do what we can
Whoever told you you deserved every little thing you ever wanted
Whoever said that you were entitled to anything at all
I was struck by a falling rocket
Hurtling down from a brutal sky
I got this theory, and I beg you don't knock it
Cause I give up when it hurts to try
Just when the ball gets rolling
That's when my heart gets stolen, one more time
Whoever told you you deserved every little thing you ever wanted
Whoever said that you were entitled to anything at all
