Master Jack

It's a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack

You taught me all I know and I'll never look back

It's a very strange world and I thank you, Master Jack

You took a coloured ribbon from out of the sky

And taught me how to use it as the years went by

Tie up all your problems and make them look neat

And then to sell them to the people in the street

It's a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack

You taught me all I know and I'll never look back

It's a very strange world and I thank you, Master Jack

I saw right through the way you started teaching me now

So, someday soon you could get to use me somehow

I thank you very much and know you've been very kind

But I'd better move along before you change my mind

It's a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack

No hard feelings if I never come back

It's a very strange world and I thank you, Master Jack

You taught me all the things, the way you like them to be

But I'd like to see if any people agree

It's all very interesting, the way you disguise

But I'd like to see the world through my own eyes

It's a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack

No hard feelings if I never come back

You're a very strange man and I thank you, Master Jack

You're a very strange man and I thank you, Master Jack

You're a very strange man, aren't you, Master Jack?
