Billy Joel - Captain Jack lyrics

Saturday night 'nd you're still hangin' around
You're tired of livin' in your one horse town
You'd 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 like some pornographic magazine
And you smile...

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

Your sister's gone out
she's on a date
And you just sit 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 your 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 holidayBilly Joel - Captain Jack - http://motolyrics.com/billy-joel/captain-jack-lyrics.html
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
