Serve The Ego Lyrics


Mirror, mirror
Do you like
What you see?
I'll dance for you
If you dance for me
Who says a woman
Cannot serve?
It would be my pleasure
Who says it is
Not my destiny
To let you control me?
Underneath the disco light
Everybody's feelin' all right
Get on your hands and knees
And praise the new deity
Serve The Ego
Serve the ego

Two ships sailing
On a neon sea
Eat the flesh
Spit out the seeds
Feathered hair
And lame heels
What turns me on
Is so surreal

Underneath the disco light
Everybody's feelin' all right
Get on your hands and knees
And praise the new deity
Serve the ego
Serve the ego

Tut tut, oh, to discover oh
Oh no, you're yesterday's lover

Underneath the disco light
Everybody's feelin' all right
Get on your hands and knees
And praise the new deity
Serve the ego
Serve the ego

Serve The Ego
  • Jewel wrote this with songwriters Cesar Lemos and Itaal Shur. Says Shur: "That resulted from a Warner-Chappel writers camp. She was there, and we started writing some songs together and a lot of cool stuff came out. We sat in a room with a couple of instruments and started to jam. I think that song came from a loop on the Triton. We put that loop on and started playing some quasi-Indian stuff and then the next thing you know, we've got a little bit of groove. One of us comes up with the melody and she says, 'Oh, I've got a good lyric for that.'" (Thanks to Itaal for speaking with us about this song. For more, check out itaalshur.com )
  • This peaked at #1 on the US Hot Dance Club Songs chart.

    Till We Run Out Of Road Lyrics




    Till We Run Out Of Road
  • Jewel wrote this with help from her boyfriend Ty Murray (they would get married in 2008 and divorce in 2014), who is a rodeo champion. The song describes the feeling of detachment that Murray's lifestyle entailed: he was constantly on the road and away from loved ones. This is a sentiment Jewel could relate to as well, as she had to give up some important aspects of her life when she became famous.
  • Ty Murray is credited as a songwriter on this track along with Jewel. She said that he came up with all the curse words and the line about beer.
  • The line, "The other day I talk to Lou, he quit back in '92," is about Lewis Field, a professional Bareback Rider in the PRCA circuit. (thanks, Mandi - Mesa, AZ)

    Standing Still Lyrics


    Cutting through the darkest night are my two headlights
    Try to keep it clear, but I'm losing it here
    To the twilight
    There's a dead end to my left
    There's a burning bush to my right
    You aren't in sight
    You aren't in sight

    Do you want me
    Like I want you
    Or am I Standing Still
    Beneath a darkened sky
    Or am I standing still
    With the scenery flying by
    Or am I standing still
    Out of the corner of my eye
    Was that you passing me by

    Mothers on the stoop
    Boys in souped-up coupes
    On this hot summer night
    Between fight and flight
    Is the blind man's sight
    And a choice that's right
    I roll the window down
    Feel like I'm gonna drown in this strange town
    Feel broken down
    Feel broken down

    Do you need me
    Like I need you
    Or am I standing still
    Beneath a darkened sky
    Or am I standing still
    With the scenery flying by
    Or am I standing still
    Out of the corner of my eye
    Was that you passing me by

    Sweet sorrow, he said call tomorrow
    Sweet sorrow, he said call tomorrow

    Do you love me
    Like I love you
    Or am I standing still
    Beneath a darkened sky
    Or am I standing still
    With the scenery flying by
    Or am I standing still
    Out of the corner of my eye
    Was that you passing me by
    are you passing me by, passing me by
    Do you want me passing me by
    Do you need me, like i need you to
    And do you want me, like i want you
    Are you passing me by or am I standing still

    Standing Still
  • This song, co-written by Rick Nowels, means several things. It's about Jewel's music career standing still. Also, it's about her love life standing still because of her career. (thanks, Shawn - Loganville, GA)
  • Jewel's boyfriend, rodeo star Ty Murray, appeared in the video. While touring to support this album, Jewel took some time off at Murray's ranch in Texas, where she was thrown from a horse and badly injured, breaking a rib and her collar bone. She resumed her tour ahead of schedule, but still missed about a month.
  • This was heavily promoted on the AOL Music channel as the service launched their "Artist Of The Month" feature with Jewel. AOL users downloaded the video over 300,000 times in October, 2001.
  • This was featured on the TV series Bates Motel in the 2013 episode "Nice Town You Picked Norma..." It was also used on the 2001 Smallville episode "Cool."
  • All of Jewel's previous singles were re-worked with new arrangements, vocals, or other edits for radio release, but this track was the first to retain its album format.
