[Verse 1]
Saturday night, and you're still hanging around
You're tired of living in your one horse town
You'd like to find a little hole in the ground
For a while
Mmm mmm mmm
[Verse 2]
So you go to the Village in your tie-dye jeans
And you stare at the junkies and the closet queens
It's like some pornographic magazine
And you smile
Mmm mmm mmm
[Chorus]
Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Captain Jack will get you by tonight
Just a little push, and you'll be smiling
Ohh, yeah yeah
[Verse 3]
Your sister's gone out, she's on a date
And you just sit at home and masturbate
Your phone is gonna ring soon, but you just can't wait
For that call
Mmm mmm mmm
[Verse 4]
So you stand on the corner in your New English clothes
And you look so polished from your hair down to your toes
Oh, but still your fingers gonna pick your nose
After all
Mmm mmm mmm, yeah
[Chorus]
But Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Captain Jack will get you by tonight
Just a little push, and you'll be smiling
Ohh
Ohh, yeah yeah
[Verse 5]
So you decide to take a holiday
You got your tape deck and your brand new Chevrolet
Ahh, there ain't no place to go anyway
What for?
Mmm mmm mmm
[Verse 6]
So you got everything, ah, but nothing's cool
They just found your father in the swimming pool
And you guess you won't be going back to school
Anymore
[Chorus]
But Captain Jack can get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Oh, Captain Jack will get you by tonight
Just a little push, and you'll be smiling
La la la
Ohh, yeah yeah
[Verse 7]
So you play your albums, and you smoke your pot
And you meet your girlfriend in the parking lot
Ohh, but still you're aching for the things you haven't got
What went wrong?
Mmm mmm mmm
[Verse 8]
And if you can't understand why your world is so dead
Why you've got to keep in style and feed your head
Well, you're 21, and still your mother makes your bed
And that's too long
Ohh ohh ohh
Ohh ohh whoa yeah yeah yeah
[Chorus]
But Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Well, now Captain Jack will get you by tonight
Just a little push, and you'll be smiling
[Chorus 2]
Oh, Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Well, now Captain Jack could make you die tonight
Just a little push, and you’ll be smiling
[Chorus]
Yeahh, Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Captain Jack will get you by tonight
Just a little push, and you'll be smiling
[Outro]
Well Captain Jack will get you high tonight
Just a little push
