Jackknife Lyrics
I don't want it
Don't want it now
This is be war
So let that call resound
Senior, senior
Mopping your brow
My two pennorth might as well be a thousand pounds
I look back to the company
A mystery on a magic isle
Now where's my halfway house?
The seagulls cloud my rubbish pile
And I tilt back til I make contact
With the stone (no, no)
And you deliver some knockout blow
I'm scattered like treason, he goes (no, no)
And you deliver some knockout blow
I was nerdish
nerdish blue
Let’s not be churlish, I was not through
But I drop the toothpick
And stop sweeping fires
I’m in the dentist’s chair
And I’m wielding pliers
I touch down in bad company
A matrix of belt and buckle lines
Turncoat, cutpurse
Knocked on wood one too many times
And I tilt back til I make contact
With the stone (no, no)
And you deliver some knockout blow
I'm scattered like treason, he goes (no, no)
And you deliver some knockout blow
It’s all a mistake, capitan
I used to sail with them
Til they cavorted and cavilled, ablaze in shoals
And put my money into the Mary Rose
And you deliver some knockout blow
Don't want it now
This is be war
So let that call resound
Senior, senior
Mopping your brow
My two pennorth might as well be a thousand pounds
A mystery on a magic isle
Now where's my halfway house?
The seagulls cloud my rubbish pile
With the stone (no, no)
And you deliver some knockout blow
I'm scattered like treason, he goes (no, no)
And you deliver some knockout blow
nerdish blue
Let’s not be churlish, I was not through
And stop sweeping fires
I’m in the dentist’s chair
And I’m wielding pliers
A matrix of belt and buckle lines
Turncoat, cutpurse
Knocked on wood one too many times
With the stone (no, no)
And you deliver some knockout blow
I'm scattered like treason, he goes (no, no)
And you deliver some knockout blow
I used to sail with them
And put my money into the Mary Rose
