Cover art for Jack Gets Up lyrics by Leo Kottke

So black, I love it. Just reading it gives a depressing image but if you ever hear him performing it you'll find yourself laughing out loud. To me it's the mumbling voice you try to put out of your head. A grumbling musing on life's inexorable, conscious march towards death marked by irrelevant memories. It's so sad it's funny.
