Jack's Obsession |
| [00:-03.31] |
|
| [00:00.00] |
Something's up with Jack |
| [00:05.51] |
Something's up with Jack |
| [00:10.31] |
Don't know if we're ever going to get him back |
| [00:18.85] |
|
| [00:19.88] |
He's all alone up there |
| [00:24.54] |
Locked away inside |
| [00:29.42] |
Never says a word |
| [00:36.75] |
Hope he hasn't died |
| [00:41.27] |
|
| [00:43.91] |
Something's up with Jack |
| [00:48.53] |
Something's up with Jack |
| [00:52.46] |
|
| [00:53.67] |
Christmas time is buzzing in my skull |
| [00:58.27] |
Will it let me be? I cannot tell |
| [01:02.94] |
There are so many things I cannot grasp |
| [01:07.74] |
When I think I've got it, and then at last |
| [01:12.53] |
Through my bony fingers it does slip |
| [01:17.33] |
Like a snowflake in a fiery grip |
| [01:24.12] |
|
| [01:26.80] |
Something's here I'm not quite getting |
| [01:31.74] |
Though I try, I keep forgetting |
| [01:36.44] |
Like a memory long since past |
| [01:41.24] |
Here in an instant, gone in a flash |
| [01:52.20] |
|
| [01:55.62] |
In these little bric-a-brac |
| [02:00.22] |
A secret's waiting to be cracked |
| [02:05.04] |
These dolls and toys confuse me so |
| [02:09.85] |
Confound it all, I love it though |
| [02:14.13] |
|
| [02:14.64] |
Simple objects, nothing more |
| [02:19.30] |
But something's hidden through a door |
| [02:24.20] |
Though I do not have the key |
| [02:28.95] |
Something's there I cannot see |
| [02:34.33] |
What does it mean? |
| [02:37.52] |
What does it mean? |
| [02:43.33] |
|
| [02:48.00] |
I've read these Christmas books so many times |
| [02:52.85] |
I know the stories and I know the rhymes |
| [02:57.54] |
I know the Christmas carols all by heart |
| [03:02.60] |
My skull's so full, it's tearing me apart |
| [03:16.74] |
|
| [03:21.06] |
As often as I've read them, something's wrong |
| [03:26.48] |
So hard to put my bony finger on |
| [03:30.93] |
|
| [03:31.16] |
Or perhaps it's really not as deep |
| [03:37.75] |
As I've been led to think |
| [03:45.63] |
Of course! I've been too close to see |
| [03:50.11] |
The answer's right in front of me |
| [03:55.04] |
It's simple really, very clear |
| [03:59.86] |
Like music drifting in the air |
| [04:04.65] |
Invisible, but everywhere |
| [04:09.29] |
Just because I cannot see it |
| [04:14.20] |
You know, I think this Christmas thing |
| [04:18.75] |
It's not as tricky as it seems |
| [04:28.47] |
|
| [04:33.48] |
And why should they have all the fun? |
| [04:38.05] |
It should belong to anyone |
| [04:43.08] |
Not anyone, in fact, but me |
| [04:47.63] |
Why, I could make a Christmas tree |
| [04:52.58] |
And there's no reason I can find |
| [04:57.24] |
I couldn't handle Christmas time |
| [05:02.17] |
I bet I could improve it too |
| [05:08.70] |
And that's exactly what I'll do |
| [05:17.50] |
|
