Billy Joel - Captain Jack lyrics

Saturday night and you`re still hangin` around

Tired of livin` in your one-horse town

Like to find a little hole in the ground

For a while

So you go to the village in your tie-dye jeans

And you stare at the junkies and the closet queens

It`s just like some pornographic magazine

And you smile

Captain Jack will get you high tonight

And take you to your special island

Captain Jack will get you by tonight

Just a little push and you`ll be smilin`

Your sister`s gone out. She`s on a date

You just sit at home and masturbate

The phone is gonna ring soon but you just can`t wait

For that call

So you stand on the corner in you New English clothes

And you look so polished from your hair down to your toes

But still your finger`s gonna pick your nose

After all

But Captain Jack will get you high tonight

And take you to your special island

Captain Jack will get you by tonight

Just a little push `n` you`ll be smilin`

La da da, Oh yeah, yeah

So you decide to take a holiday

You got your tape deck and your brand new Chevrolet

Ah but there`s no place to go anyway

And what for...

You`ve got everything, but nothing`s cool

They`ve just found your father in the swimming pool

And you guess you won`t be going back to school

Anymore...

But Captain Jack will get you high tonight

And take you to your special island

Captain Jack will get you by tonight

Just a little push `n` you`ll be smilin`

La da da, Oh yeah, yeah

So you play your albums and you smoke your pot

And you meet your girlfriend in the parking lot

Oh, but still you`re aching for the things you have not got

What went wrong...

And if you can`t understand why your world is so dead

And why you`ve got to keep in style and feed your head

Well, you`re twenty-one and still your mother makes your bed

And that`s too long...

But Captain Jack will get you high tonight

And take you to your special island

Captain Jack will get you by tonight

Just a little push `n` you`ll be smilin`

Yeah, Captain Jack will get you by tonight

Yeah, Captain Jack will get you by tonight
