naphillow - jack of all trades (featuring len kagamine) lyrics

Loading...

some may call it a happenstance but i say it was meant to be
always more and never less from the child of a prophecy
“the world abhors the losing team, so you better carve a legacy”
so with brains on my side, i take the lead

advance with ease and watch my colleagues trip and fall
how pitiful that im above them all
no use in effort for my natural talent shines
they say im a gift brought down by the divine

all the townsfolk tip their hats off
they all claim ive hit the jack+

jack! jack! jack! i’m the jack of all tradеs!
shower me with riches, covеr me in bouquets!
flaunting my successes leads to people praising
clear the way, a prodigy is in the making!

ha! ha! ha! that enough to persuade?
feed me your attention through a blinded gaze
life without an audience is greatly plain, if
i’m without applause then it’ll surely leave me dead

how i crave their high regards but their love for me is faint
solitary of a heart, with limbs tied to restraints
“oh not a soul cares of your goals, they would rather see you be a saint”
yet another magnum opus i shall paint
another day to craft a smile, a facade
or else, they’ll think of me as odd
so i’ll excel to gain the worship of the storm
for all i’ve ever known is to perform

church bells cry, they think theyve cracked it
prying yet they dont know jack+

“jack! jack! jack! oh the jack of all trades!”
thats what they all call me, ive forgotten my name
posing for the camera of a thousand faces
cutting off my tongue and letting prowess take it

ha! ha! ha! what a charming charade!
giftedly unable to communicate
compensate with excellence in flawless grace
acclimate to reverence from unctuous doltish snakes

days and decades move along and i sense a state of drought
seems the spark of the golden child is starting to fade away(/out)
scholars say my power’s peaked and i’d benefit a different route
but i fail to fathom reasons why and hardly(/how) i can aid this disarray

raking pieces for the outcome i can’t stall
relearn things i’ve ne’er known at all
coerce my mind to strive until i finally fail
oh, the pressure only strengthens as i fall
(little musical interlude/break)

all the townsfolk tip their hats off
they all claim ive hit the jackpot
church bells cry, they think theyve cracked it
prying yet they dont know jacksh+t

stop stop stop stop (repeated)

jack! jack! jack! i’m the jack of all trades!
throw me in a ditch or burn me at the stake!
what am i to do without my gift, i wonder
evidently, i believe that i’m a goner!

ha! ha! ha! a pathetic parade!
where is everybody? ive begun to decay!
flowers turn to powder, i no longer think straight
th+rns are latching at my throat theres no way to escape
