Lyrics to Jackknife
Jackknife Video:
I don't want it

Don't want it now

This is be war

So let that call resound

Senior, senior

Mopping your brow

My two pennorth might as well be a thousand pounds



I look back to the company

A mystery on a magic isle

Now where's my halfway house?

The seagulls cloud my rubbish pile



And I tilt back til I make contact

With the stone (no, no)

And you deliver some knockout blow

I'm scattered like treason, he goes (no, no)

And you deliver some knockout blow



I was nerdish

nerdish blue

Let's not be churlish, I was not through



But I drop the toothpick

And stop sweeping fires

I'm in the dentist's chair

And I'm wielding pliers



I touch down in bad company

A matrix of belt and buckle lines

Turncoat, cutpurse

Knocked on wood one too many times



And I tilt back til I make contact

With the stone (no, no)

And you deliver some knockout blow

I'm scattered like treason, he goes (no, no)

And you deliver some knockout blow



It's all a mistake, capitan

I used to sail with them



Til they cavorted and cavilled, ablaze in shoals

And put my money into the Mary Rose



And you deliver some knockout blow
