Jack,youre Dead
When youve got no more assurance
Than a great big hunk of lead
If you dont respond to romance
Jack, youre dead!
When a chick is smiling at you
Even though theres nothing said
If you stand there like a statue
Jack, youre dead!
Youve been always kicking
But you stubbed your toes
When you ups and kicks the bucket
Just like old man mose
When you get no kicks from loving
And you blow your top instead
Its a fact that you aint living
Jack, youre dead!
If you just aint got nobody
Since youve gone and lost your head
Rigor mortis has set in daddy
Jack, youre dead!
Whats the use of having muscles
When your life hangs by a thread
If you aint got no red corpuscles
Jack, youre dead!
Youve been always kicking
But you stubbed your toes
When you ups and kicks the bucket
Just like old man mose
When you get no kicks from loving
And the news begins to spread
All the cats will holler, murder!
Jack, youre dead!
All the breaths leaked out of you
When your friends gather round the bed
And look at you and say, um, um, um, dont he look natural
When that happens to you, daddy
Jack, youre dead!
