I went to school with 27 Jennifers
16 Jenns, 10 Jennies, and then there was her

It's the sweet shine of,
Yeah, force of divine love
The blessed arrival of you

You might be the one that I've been seeking for
You might be the strange delightful
You might be the girly who shall end all girls
You might be the sweet unspiteful

I rode the bus with 27 Jennifers
16 Jenns, 10 Jennies disapproved of her

Yeah, get from my sight, man,
Gladness is a blight, and
Happiness stinks up the room

Reminds me of the song "88 lines about 44 women".

I was one of 25 Jennifers in my class of 56 girls. 

I know *exactly* what he's talking about.  So I give it an 8, because it makes me smile.  :-)

My daughter's name is Jessica. When she was born I thought it was a very unique name; then every girl born withinthe following 6 months was named the same!

However, I think there really are more Jennifers.

Interesting to hear this, after hearing the newer version.  A little more rough and interesting, though harder to follow the story.  Still, when listening to him, I kinda miss the Soul Coughing sound.

I like it.

But then ... Soul Coughing has a special place on my iPod.  (Best music when killing time in an airport.)
