Mad Jack
He's cold to the kiss
In ignorance he's dangerous
In innocence he's bliss
And he stalks the night
With sonar senses
And he holds you tight
Masturbates the madness in you
He dreams when he's not sleeping
Plays the trusted friend
Trust him, friend
About as far as you can piss
And he holds the night
Walks in shadow
And avoids the light
Masturbates the madness in you
His frightened eyes
Can't disguise
Blatant lies
Blatant lies
Step inside
Well just watch him now
Where he's walking
It's a vacuum world
And every word
A silent, strangled scream
He's God tonight
Walks on water
And he's always right
Talks about the madness in America
Oh he's God tonight
He walks on water
And he's always right
Talks about the madness in Africa
His frightened eyes
Mad Jack's eyes
Can't disguise
Blatant lies
Frightened eyes
Mad Jack's eyes
Are open wide
It's been a long time Jack
Welcome back
Have some speed
Have some smack
If you want to dance Jack
Don't look back
In ignorance he's dangerous
In innocence he's bliss
And he stalks the night
With sonar senses
And he holds you tight
Masturbates the madness in you
He dreams when he's not sleeping
Plays the trusted friend
Trust him, friend
About as far as you can piss
And he holds the night
Walks in shadow
And avoids the light
Masturbates the madness in you
His frightened eyes
Can't disguise
Blatant lies
Blatant lies
Step inside
Well just watch him now
Where he's walking
It's a vacuum world
And every word
A silent, strangled scream
He's God tonight
Walks on water
And he's always right
Talks about the madness in America
Oh he's God tonight
He walks on water
And he's always right
Talks about the madness in Africa
His frightened eyes
Mad Jack's eyes
Can't disguise
Blatant lies
Frightened eyes
Mad Jack's eyes
Are open wide
It's been a long time Jack
Welcome back
Have some speed
Have some smack
If you want to dance Jack
Don't look back
