Sixteen Saltines Lyrics by Jack White
she’s got stickers on her locker
and the boy’s number’s there in magic marker
i’m hungry and the hunger will linger
i eat sixteen saltine crackers then i lick my fingers
well every morning i deliver the news
black hat white shoes and i’m red allover
she’s got a big mailbox, that she puts up front
garbage in garbage out, she’s getting what she wants
who’s jealous who’s jealous who’s jealous who’s jealous of who?
if i get busy then i couldn’t care less what you do
but when i’m by myself i think of nothing else
than if a boy just might be getting through and touching you
spike heels make a hole in a lifeboat
jump — and i’m talking and laughing as we float
i hear a whistle, that’s how i know she’s home
lipstick, eyelash, broke mirror, broken home
force fed, force mixed ’till i drop dead
you can’t defeat her, when you meet her you’ll be what i said
and lord knows there’s a method to her madness
bustin’ those jokes as i float in a sea of sadness
she doesn’t know but when she’s gonna sit and drink up a few
i’m sure she’s drinkin two, but wondering what for and who
and i’m solo rollin’. i’m one side off the boat.
looking out, throwing up, a lifesaver down my throat
who’s jealous who’s jealous who’s jealous who’s jealous of who? (x3)
