DISCLAIMER: I'll give you two truths this time. Truth: I don't own Cowboy Bebop. Truth: I wish I did. Lie: You still think I own CB.

A/N: I've been having real problems with this one. I mean, do you have any idea how difficult it is to come up with a song from JET'S point of view? Seriously. Anyway, read on.

Jet's Song – cowboy bebop (SONGS, SERIES 2)

Enjoy.

JET'S SONG – cowboy bebop

It's a mystery

That these three people

Haven't turned invisible yet

I try to be the sensible one

And act like it's no big deal

Because it isn't

Is it?

A woman

A man

A little girl with a boy's name

Exhausting to babysit

And sometimes I wonder

Why I'm not paid to watch them

What am I exactly?

A father?

A friend?

A convenient ally?

Well whatever I am

They've been taking advantage

Of the fact that I'm always here

And the fact that I can't

Couldn't stand

To kick them out

Or forget them

And leave them alone.

CLEARLY

I can see them

When I'm blind

And I can hear them

When I'm deaf

And I can feel them

When they're gone.

THEY

Silently I'm forced to watch

As if I'm some parent

As the little girl dances away

Out into the deserts

Leaving me with only

A written farewell

That I will eventually be forced

To clean up.

ARE

And then again

I'm held in place

Frozen by protective feelings

As the man, my friend

My son

My convenient ally

Leaves for the final time

And dies.

EVENTUALLY

I am left alone

With the woman,

My friend,

My daughter,

My convenient ally

And I watch as she crumbles

Into a shadow of what used to

Be.

ALL

The other two are gone

And I know I have to help

This woman

But I'm wondering

GOING TO

If there will ever

Be anyone to look after

Me.

DIE.
