They stood by the window
And watched the old church
Burn for the second time
The light from the fire
Made her glow like an angel
As she pulled him down and smiled
They lay on the bed
There were shouts all around
They could shut the whole war out
With the squeak of the springs
And tomorrows dreams
And the beating of their hearts
He would lay his arms down for her
She would forgive his brother's crime
They would do anything
To make it past Vrbana Bridge
Well he looked up to Jesus
And she looked to the east
Where the sun was soon to rise
She asked for Allah's blessings
To keep them both alive
They had friends in high places
Who could do them a favor
Turn a blind eye
They'd seen so much hate
And death every day
Jill Sobule (nata il 16 gennaio 1965 a Denver, Colorado) è una cantautrice americana nota per il singolo del 1995 "I Kissed a Girl" e "Supermodel", presente nella colonna sonora del film del 1995 "Clueless". Le sue composizioni folk-infuse oscillano tra studi di personaggi ironici e narrativi e ballate emotive, una dualità che ricorda cantautori americani degli anni '70 come Warren Zevon, Harry Nilsson, Loudon Wainwright III, Harry Chapin e Randy Newman. Elementi autobiografici, tra cui l'eredità ebraica di Sobule e le sue lotte adolescenziali con l'anoressia e la depressione, compaiono frequentemente nella sua scrittura. Un apprezzabile percentuale del suo lavoro è anche dedicata a dettagliate descrizioni sia delle proprie creazioni femminili fittizie che di donne celebri ma tormentate come Joey Heatherton e Mary Kay Letourneau, le cui storie vengono spesso utilizzate per fare commenti ironici sulla fama e la celebrità. Nel 2009 ha pubblicato un album finanziato interamente da donazioni dei fan.
