Saturday night and 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, hmmm 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, mmm 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', oh yeah, yeah Your sister's gone out, she's on a date And you just sit at home and masturbate Your phone is gonna ring soon, but you just can't wait For that call, mmm So you stand on the corner in your new English clothes And you look so polished from your hair down to your toes Oh, but still your fingers gonna pick your nose After all, mmm, yeah 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, you'll be smilin', oh, oh yeah, yeah So you decide to take a holiday You got your tape deck and your brand new Chevrolet Ah, there's ain't no place to go anyway And what for, mmm So, 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 can get you high tonight And take you to your special island Oh, Captain Jack will get you by tonight Just a little push and 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 haven't got What went wrong, mmm 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, oh, oh yeah yeah But Captain Jack will get you high tonight And take you to your special island Oh, now Captain Jack will get you by tonight Just a little push and you'll be smilin' Oh, Captain Jack will get you high tonight And take you to your special island Oh, now Captain Jack will get you by tonight Just a little push and you'll be smilin' Yeah, Captain Jack will get you high tonight And take you to your special island Oh, now Captain Jack will make it right tonight Yeah, Captain Jack will get you high tonight |
