Do you mean Counting Crows?  That's not from THEIR Mr. Jones.

I thought it was the group that did Burnin Down the House, but for the life of me, I can't think of the group.

wait a minute, yes it is, I looked up the lyrics on getlyrics.com...they said that was the counting crowes (I didnt bother to make sure that those were the right lyrics though, so maybe Im the idiot.....I actully havent heard that song in like 3 years, so i dont even remember if those lyrics are in the song...damn...Buring down the house was by the talking heads..but maybe I put the wrong Mr jones..are you sure, cause I did get the lyrics fromthe site, and that means the site is wrong...

oh shoot, youre absolutly right..I didnt look at the lyrics right I guess (and this makes getlyrics.com loose points in my book, cause they did say Counting crowes!) damn, and you know what..im the idiot because I know the chourus  to the 90's Mr Jones, the "mr Jones and me....",and I should have realized that that chourus wasnt there..thank you 80's cheerleader..I made a huge mistake (its better for this mistake to come out now rather than when i inadvertenly use the wrong lyrics if I was to write a parody to it lol)  damn
