Happy Jack wasn't tall, but he was a manHe lived in the sand at the Isle of ManThe kids would all sing, he would take the wrong keySo They rode on ahead in a hurry on Quay.
The kids couldn't hurt JackThey tried and tried and triedThey dropped things on his backAnd lied and lied and lied and lied and lied
But they couldn't stop Jack, or the waters lappingAnd they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy
But they couldn't stop Jack, or the waters lappingAnd they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy
The kids couldn't hurt JackThey tried and tried and triedThey dropped things on his backAnd lied and lied and lied and lied and lied
But they couldn't stop Jack, or the waters lappingAnd they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy

I know you've deceived me, now here's a surpriseI know that you have 'cause there's magic in my eyesI can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and milesOh yeah
If you think that I don't know about the little tricks you've playedAnd never see you when deliberately you put things in my wayWell, here's a poke at youYou're gonna choke on it tooYou're gonna lose that smileBecause all the while
I can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and milesOh yeah
You took advantage of my trust in you when I was so far awayI saw you holding lots of other guys and now you've got the nerve to sayThat you still want meWell that's as may beBut you gotta stand trialBecause all the while
I can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and milesOh yeah
I know you've deceived me, now here's a surpriseI know that you have 'cause there's magic in my eyesI can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and milesOh yeah
The Eiffel Tower and the Taj Mahal are mine to see on clear daysYou thought that I would need a crystal ball to see right through the hazeWell here's a poke at youYou're gonna choke on it tooYou're gonna lose that smileBecause all the while
I can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
I can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and milesI can see for miles and miles

I used to wake up in the morningI used to feel so badI got so sick of having sleepless nightsI went and told my dad
He said, "Son now here's some little something"And stuck them on my wallAnd now my nights ain't quite so lonelyIn fact I, I don't feel bad at all
Pictures of Lily made my life so wonderfulPictures of Lily helped me sleep at nightPictures of Lily solved my childhood problemsPictures of Lily helped me feel alright
Pictures of LilyLily, oh LilyLily, oh LilyPictures of Lily
And then one day things weren't quite so fineI fell in love with LilyI asked my dad where Lily I could findHe said, "Son, now don't be silly"
"She's been dead since 1929"Oh, how I cried that nightIf only I'd been born in Lily's timeIt would have been alright
Pictures of Lily made my life so wonderfulPictures of Lily helped me sleep at night
For me and Lily are together in my dreamsAnd I ask you, "Hey mister, have you ever seen""Pictures of Lily?"

People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation)Just because we get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)I hope I die before I get old (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
This is my generationThis is my generation, baby
Why don't you all fffffade away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)And don't try to dig what we all s-s-say (Talkin' 'bout my generation)I'm not trying to cause a big s-s-sensation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-g-g-generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

I looked under chairsI looked under tablesI try to find the keyTo fifty million fables
They call me the seekerI've been searchin' low and high
I won't get to get what I'm afterTill the day I die
I asked Bobby DylanI asked the BeatlesI asked Timothy LearyBut he couldn't help me either
They call me the seekerI've been searchin' low and high
I won't get to get what I'm afterTill the day I die
People tend to hate meCause I never smileAs I ransack their homes they wanna shake my hand
Focusin' on nowhereInvestigatin' milesI'm a seeker I'm a really desperate man
I won't get to get what I'm afterTill the day I die
I learned how to raise my voice in angerYeah but look at my face, ain't this a smileI'm happy when life's good, and when it's bad I cryI got values but I don't know how or why
I'm lookin' for meYou're lookin' for youWe're lookin' at each other and we don't know what to do
They call me the seekerI've been searchin' low and high
I won't get to get what I'm afterTill the day I die

I told you why I changed my mindI got bored by playing with timeI know you thought you had me nailedBut I've freed my head from your garden rails
Now it's a legal matter, babyYou got me on the runIt's a legal matter, babyA legal matter from now on
My mind's lost in a household fogWedding gowns and catalogsKitchen furnishings and housesMaternity clothes and baby's trousers
Now it's a legal matter, babyMarryin's no funIt's a legal matter, babyA legal matter from now on
I told you why I changed my mindI got bored by playing with timeI know you thought you had me nailedWell, I've freed my head from your garden rails
Now it's a legal matter, babyYou got me on the runIt's a legal matter, babyA legal matter from now on
You ain't the first and you ain't the lastI gain and lose my women fastI never want to make them cryI just get bored, don't ask me why
Just wanna keep doing all the dirty little things I doAnd not work all day in an office just to bring my money back to youSorry, baby
