Jill Sobule (born January 16, 1965 in Denver, Colorado) is an American singer-songwriter best known for the 1995 single "I Kissed a Girl", and "Supermodel" from the soundtrack of the 1995 film Clueless. Her folk-inflected compositions alternate between ironic, story-driven character studies and emotive ballads, a duality reminiscent of such 1970s American songwriters as Warren Zevon, Harry Nilsson, Loudon Wainwright III, Harry Chapin, and Randy Newman.

I'm in the wings when you push me on
But I never learned the words to the songs
And there I stand naked, they're staring at me, laughing at me

I'm by the locker turning the dial

Then I'm on a boat heading over the falls
You reach for my hand but it just breaks off

I suddenly wake up was only a dream
I'm back in the gilt cage that you made for me
But when you are working or fast asleep
I put my headphones on
I put my headphones on

I'm in the backyard burying the bones
Don't know why I did it, hope no one will know
I can't seem to hide the remains of my crime, I never learned to fly

I suddenly wake up was only a dream
I'm back in the gilt cage that you made for me
There might be someone who listens to me
I put my headphones on
I put my headphones on

Flip the record, headphones on
Court and spark, the 7th song
Joni sings love is gone, love is gone
Janis ian's Seventeen
That song from 10cc
Alone again naturally
Someone has is worse than me
Sam Stone,  Major Tom
Captain Jack and Delta Dawn
Alvin Tustig, Sweet Jane
Music wash away my pain

I put my headphones on
I put my headphones on
