Oh, living the life of a madman's wife, has got to be unreal | |
'cause she's got to hold on to ground control | |
While jack does what he feels | |
Well he stays away, and then he comes home | |
And he never knows where he's been | |
Jack blasts downtown then he's over the line, | |
And then he's a kid again | |
Jack said" it's hard living in a dream, and it's hard | |
Always giving in to me" | |
*his wife saw jack in a crowd of boys and he was talking against | |
The man | |
She saw the guys getting dangerous eyes, and she knew it | |
Was never or then | |
So she ran on back an d said to jack " jack, jack i wouldn't do that, | |
If you're gonna continue to give your opinion, you'd better | |
Watch your back" | |
Oh, jack said "you'd better watch your back" | |
Said "you'd better watch your back" | |
Said "you'd better watch your back" | |
*said "you'd better watch your back, oh, jack | |
Had knock down dream, then he saw the man. | |
And thought he'd save the day | |
Jack gave roar, made for the door, he'd go to church and pray | |
Say jackie, religion and you, ain't mixed well in the past | |
Remember when you smashed your fist on the eucharist, | |
Threw up in high mass? | |
It's hard always giving in to me | |
* repeat* | |
Oh, jack you'd better watch your back", oh, jack, oh jack, | |
Oh, jack........ |
