"Jack Of Legs" lyrics

"Jack Of Legs"

You came out of the shadow
Like a walking stick
Toward its prey

An eternity in the fraternity
Of long distance men

And we just smiled
Face to face
With nothing great to say

I've seen your Mona Lisa

A stagehand filed an anonymous complaint
When you kicked over the jack of legs
The contents of the body
Every prop in the play
Came crashing down
And ruining the entire display
