Artist/Band: Fall
Lyrics for Song: Fiery Jack
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Fall



My face is slack

And kidneys burn

In the small of my back

Will never learn

Well I'm not going back

To the slow life

Because every step is a drag

And pieces of kite

Of materials you never catch

Come up for a snatch

Up from hell

Once in a while

Cause I am Jack

From a burning ring

My face is slack

And I think think think

I just think think think

Too fast to write

Too fast to work

Just burn burn burn

I sat and drank

While my dreams decay

I'm 45

Cause I am Jack

From a burning ring

And my face is slack

And I think think think

I just drink drink drink

Too fast to write

Too fast to work

I just burn burn burn

I eat hot dogs

I live on pies

I'm 45

Cause I am Jack

And I think think think

Just think think think

Too fast to write

Too fast to work

Just burn burn burn

And put down left-wing tirades

and the musical trade

End free trade

I say eat this grenade

Gonna eat this grenade

Cause I am Jack

Some man from the docks

They are smart

Their brains are half

They never end

Just follow trends

But I am Jack

From a burning ring

My face is slack

And I think think think

Just think think think

Too fast to write

Too fast to work

I just burn burn burn

I am Jack

And put down left-wing tirades

and the musical trade

End all free trade

I said eat this grenade

I said eat this grenade

End all free trade

I said eat this grenade


Fiery Jack

Fiery Jack stands as a testament to the Fall's enduring capacity for eccentric storytelling and rhythmic experimentation. Mark E. Smith's distinctive vocal delivery anchors the track, weaving a narrative that reflects the band's signature blend of post-punk energy and surreal lyricism. The recording captures the group's ability to transform simple musical structures into complex, engaging soundscapes that defy easy categorization. Within their extensive discography, the song exemplifies the Fall's commitment to artistic evolution, maintaining a raw, unpolished aesthetic that has defined their career for decades. It remains a compelling song point for listeners exploring the band's vast catalogue, showcasing the dynamic interplay between Smith's idiosyncratic phrasing and the band's tight, driving instrumentation.
