Billy Joel Lyrics for Song: Captain Jack
 Lyrics for Album: Live At Shea Stadium: Deluxe Edition [2011]
 
 
 
 24380>Saturday night and you're still hangin' around
 
 You're tired of livin' in your one horse town
 
 You'd like to find a little hole in the ground
 
 For a while...
 
 
 
 So you go to the village in your tie-dye jeans
 
 And you stare at the junkies and the closet queens
 
 It's like some pornographic magazine
 
 And you smile...
 
 
 
 But Captain Jack will get you high at night
 
 And take you to your special island
 
 Captain Jack will get you by tonight
 
 Just a little push 'n' you'll be smilin'
 
 La da da, Oh yeah, yeah
 
 
 
 Your sister's gone out, she's on a date
 
 And 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
 
 But still your fingers gonna pick your nose
 
 After all...
 
 
 
 But Captain Jack will get you high at night
 
 And take you to your special island
 
 Captain Jack will get you by tonight
 
 Just a little push 'n' you'll be smilin'
 
 La da da, Oh yeah, yeah
 
 
 
 So you decide to take a holiday
 
 You got your tape deck and your brand new Chevrolet
 
 Ah but there's no place to go anyway
 
 And what for...
 
 
 
 You've got everything but nothing's cool,
 
 They've just found your father in the swimming pool
 
 And you guess you won't be going back to school
 
 Anymore...
 
 
 
 But Captain Jack can get you high at night
 
 And take you to your special island
 
 Captain Jack will get you by tonight
 
 Just a little push 'n' you'll be smilin'
 
 La da da, Oh yeah, yeah
 
 
 
 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
 
 And why you've got to keep in style and feed your head
 
 Well, you're twenty-one and still your mother makes your bed
 
 and that's too long...
 
 
 
 But Captain Jack will get you high at night
 
 And take you to your special island
 
 Captain Jack will get you by tonight
 
 Just a little push 'n' you'll be smilin'
 
 La da da, Oh yeah, yeah
 
 Yeah, Captain Jack will get you by tonight
 
 Yeah, Captain Jack will get you by tonight
