Something's up with Jack
Something's up with Jack
:29:11
Don't know if we're ever
going to get him back
:29:16
He's all alone up there
locked away inside
:29:22
- Never says a word
- Hope he hasn't died
:29:24
Something's up with Jack
Something's up with Jack
:29:35
Christmastime
is buzzing in my skull
:29:38
Will it let me be
I cannot tell
:29:41
There's so many things
I cannot grasp
:29:44
When I think I've got it
and then at last
:29:47
Through my bony fingers
it does slip
:29:50
Like a snowflake
in a fiery grip
:29:53
Something here I'm not quite getting
Though I try I keep forgetting
:29:56
Like a memory
long since past
:30:00
Here in an instant
Gone in a flash
:30:02
What does it mean
What does it mean
:30:05
In these little bric-a-brac
A secret's waiting to be cracked
:30:08
These dolls and toys confuse me so
Confound it all, I love it though
:30:13
Simple objects, nothing more
But something's hidden through a door
:30:16
Though I do not have the key
Something's here I cannot see
:30:21
What does it mean
What does it mean
:30:25
What does it mean
:30:28
Hmm. Hmm.
:30:32
I've read these Christmas books
so many times
:30:35
I know the stories
and I know the rhymes
:30:38
I know the Christmas carols
all by heart
:30:41
My skull's so full
it's tearing me apart
:30:44
As often as I've read them
Something's wrong
:30:47
It's so hard to put
my bony finger on
:30:50
Or perhaps it's really not as deep
as I've been led to think
:30:53
Am I trying much too hard
:30:56
Of course
I've been too close to see
:30:58
The answer's right in front of me
Right in front of me
