Tori Amos - Jackie's Strength songtekst

Over deze songtekst:

Het lied geeft verwijzingen naar Jackie Onassis, die eerder met John F. Kennedy, de vroegere Amerikaanse president, was getrouwd. John F. Kennedy werd op 22 november 1963 in Dallas doodgeschoten. Jackie trouwde 20 oktober 1968 met Aristotle Onassis, een zeer rijke Griekse scheepsmagaat.
Jackie overleed in 1994.

Tori heeft herhaaldelijk gezegd dat dit lied ook over haar eigen twijfels gaat wat het huwelijk betreft.

And Jackie and Jackie
And Jackie's strength
And Jackie and Jackie, hey

A bouvier 'til her wedding day
Shots rang out, the police came
Mama layed me on the front lawn
And prayed for Jackie's strength

Feeling old by 21
Never thought my day would come
My bridesmaids getting laid
I pray for Jackie's strength

Make me laugh
Say you know what you want
You said we were the real thing
So I show you some more and I learn what black magic can do
Make me laugh
Say you know you can turn
Me into the real thing
So I show you some more and I learn

Stickers licked on lunch boxes
Worshipping David Cassidy
Yeah, I mooned him once on Donna's box
She's still in recovery

Sleep-overs Beene's got some pot
You're only popular with anorexia
So I turn myself inside out
In hope someone will see

Make me laugh
Say you know what you want
You said we were the real thing
So I show you some more and I learn what black magic can do
Make me laugh
Say you know you can turn
Me into the real thing
So I show you some more and I learn

And Jackie and Jackie
And Jackie's strength
And Jackie and Jackie, hey

I got lost on my wedding day
Typical the police came
Oh, but virgins always get backstage
No matter what they've got to say

If you love enough you'll lie a lot
Guess they did in Camelot
Mama's waiting on my front lawn
I pray, I pray for Jackie's strength

Make me laugh
Say you know what you want
You said we were the real thing
So I show you some more and I learn
 
And Jackie and Jackie
And Jackie's strength
And Jackie and Jackie, hey
