Papa Jack — текст песни (Morrissey)

Papa jack

Wants to turn

Back the clock

And reach out

To the kids

He once had

Who have flown



Papa jack

In decline

Feels inclined

To reach out

To the kids

He once had

Who have flown





But there was a time

When the kids reached up

And papa jack just

Pushed them away





Looking deep

In his heart

Papa jack

Doesnt like

What he sees

Or the time

On his hands





The dying day

The chilly sun

Papa jack

All alone

Sings slow

Grieving and low





But there was a time

When the kids reached up

Now you cant always

Have it your way





Papa jack

Ah ...
