Jill Sobule

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.

If I had a jetpack the first thing that I would do
Is fly above the gridlock and come to you
I'd peek into the windows on 5th ave.
To see how the other side lives

And if I had a jetpack I would strap it on
I'd get out of this one room and I'd be gone
To where they're real houses and big front yards
If I had a jetpack

I'd take you up with me
At least we'd both be free, past the statue of liberty
In my jetpack

If I had a jetpack, I'd fly over the bridge
I'd wave to all my friends who thought I'd never rise again
I'd fly over the stadium to watch my team win, watch my team win
And if I had a jetpack, I'd bust into your door
Take you by the hand to the Jersey shore
And underneath the moonlight, you'd want me even more
'Cause, I'd have a jetpack

I'd take you up so high
If I dropped you, you would die
But I want you by my side, in my jetpack

I don't have a jetpack. I don't even have a car
I just have this token and a head full of stars
I wish you didn't live up town so far
Cause I don't have a..........jetpack
