The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Oh, living the life of a madman's wife, has got to be unreal

'Cause she's got to hold on to ground control

While Jack does what he feels

Well he stays away, and then he comes home

And he never knows where he's been

Jack blasts downtown then he's over the line,

and then he's a kid again

Jack said" It's hard living in a dream, and it's hard

always giving in to me"

*His wife saw Jack in a crowd of boys and he was talking against

the man

She saw the guys getting dangerous eyes, and she knew it

was never or then

So she ran on back an d said to Jack " Jack, Jack I wouldn't do that,

if you're gonna continue to give your opinion, You'd Better

Watch Your Back"

Oh, Jack said "You'd Better Watch Your Back"

Said "You'd Better Watch Your Back"

Said "You'd Better Watch Your Back"

*Said "You'd Better Watch Your Back, Oh, Jack

Had knock down dream, then he saw the man.

And thought he'd save the day

Jack gave roar, made for the door, he'd go to church and pray

Say Jackie, Religion and you, ain't mixed well in the past

Remember when you smashed your fist on the Eucharist,

threw up in high mass?

It's hard always giving in to me

* Repeat*

Oh, Jack You'd Better Watch Your Back", Oh, Jack, Oh Jack,

Oh, Jack........
