Captain Jack Lyrics - The Complete Hits Collection 1973-1997 - Billy Joel

Saturday night and you're still hangin' around 

Tired of living in your one horse town 

you'd like to find a little hole in the ground, 

for awhile. 

So you go to the village in your tie dyed jeans 

And you stare at the junkies and the closet queens 

It's like some pornographic magazine 

And you smile 

(chorus) 

Captain Jack will get you high tonight 

And take you to your special island 

Captain Jack will get you by tonight 

Just a little push, and you'll be smilin' 

Oh yeah,...

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Your sister's gone out, she's on a date 

You just sit at home and masturbate 

Your phone is gonna ring soon, but you just can't wait 

For that call 

So you stand on the corner in your New English clothes 

and you look so polished from your hair down to your toes 

Ah but still your fingers gonna pick your nose 

After all,. 

(chorus) 

So you decide to take a holiday 

You got your tape deck and your brand new Chevrolet 

Ah, there ain't no place to go anyway 

What for? 

So you got everything, ah, but nothing's cool 

They just found your father in the swimming pool 

And you guess you won't be going back to school 

Anymore.

(chorus) 

So you play your albums, and you smoke your pot 

and you meet your girlfriend in the parking lot 

Oh but still you're aching for the things you haven't got 

What went wrong? 

And if you can't understand why your world is so dead, 

why you've got to keep in style and feed your head 

Well you're 21 and still your mother makes your bed, 

And that's too long 

(chorus)
