Ben Folds Five - Jackson Cannery - 7" lyrics

rate me

Stop the bus

I wanna be lonely

when seconds pass slowly

and years go flying by

you gotta stop the bus

I'll get off here

Enough's enough

and I'm leaving this factory

All she wants is food on the table

and I won't be able

to bring it home

all I wants

come on

'cause all I need

yeah, is free

'cause I'm a factory

CHORUS

Did mother nature tell you

Boy you come and go

as you please

that's what she said to me

Big brother got the keys

and I got Jackson Cannery

Millionaires and millrats

live side by side

messed up my brother's mind

he's far from earth

tell me what's he worth

same as you, same as me

in this factory

CHORUS

It's four in the morning

mother don't know that

I'm going far away

she's whispering to the moon

I hope he don't join you soon

Baby boss climbs up on

his soapbox

Great Caesar's Ghost knows

what's best for me

so stop the bus

Did Mother Nature tell you

Boy you come and go

as you please

that's what she said to me

but big brother got the keys

and I got Jackson Cannery

Big brother got the keys

and I got Jackson Cannery

Big bother got the keys

and I got Jackson Cannery
