ben folds five - jackson cannery (original 7" version) lyrics
stop the bus, i wanna be lonely
when seconds p-ss slowly and years go flying by
you gotta stop the bus and 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
and all i want, come on
’cause all i need, yeah is free, ’cause i’m a factory
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
woah, woah
woah, woah
millionaires and mill rats live side by side
messed up my brother’s mind who’s far from earth
and tell me what’s he worth?
the same as you, the same as me in this factory
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
woah, woah
woah, woah
it’s four in the morning
mother don’t know that i’m going far away
she’s whispering to the moon, i hope you don’t
join you soon
baby boss climbs up on his soapbox
great caesar’s ghost knows what’s best for me
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 brother had the keys
and i got jackson cannery
