It Wasn't Me Lyrics

Cover art for It Wasn't Me lyrics by Jenny Lewis

Anyone who says she can't write a good song after hearing this album, and especially this song, needs to really open his ears and mind to her unique voice. Jenny's writing as well as anyone in this song, taking her own history and turning it into something larger and universal that resonates with her audience. If this isn't good songwriting, I don't know what is: "in hollywood and washington / they shake and smile through the harm they've done / but it's your little red wagon / and you gotta pull it"

This song is great, this album is remarkable, and Jenny Lewis is on her way to being as good a singer/songwriter as anyone else in popular music. No exaggeration.

I disagree completely. She is not as good a singer/songwriter as anyone else in popular music, she is way above most popular music. Her voice is pristine. Her lyrics make you feel like she wrote the song for you. She is AMAZING.
