Jack
Music: Jeremy Magid
Lyrics: Jeremy Magid |
This is a story of a man and his life
He gets up in the morning gives a kiss unto his wife
Walks out the door turns off his car alarm
Checks his Bentley for scratches, satisfied continues on
To his office he proceeds, holds his head with dignity
Gives his daily ass kiss and he smiles happily
But late at night when he finally gets home
Everybody's fast asleep and he's left all alone
CHORUS
Tell me Jack
man where have you been?
It's been a long time, what kind of trouble are you in?
I wonder if I'll ever get to see you again|
Verse 2
So he opens up his bible which we call the Wall Street Journal
He's counting up his money, every crumb and every kernel
There isn't a bank that wouldn't give him a loan
And he measures his self-worth by calculating what he owns
But the smile starts to fade when he thinks about his friends
The ones he said he'd stick with until the bitter end
So he thinks to himself what he has lost and what he's gained
As the tears roll down his face he knows it's time for a change |
