Jackson Cannery Lyrics

The song Jackson Cannery is performed by Ben Folds in the album named Naked Baby Photos in the year 1998 .



Stop the bus, I wanna be lonely
When seconds pa*s slowly and years go flying by
You gotta stop the bus and get off here
That's enough and I'm leaving this factory

And all she wants is food on the table
And I won't be able to bring it home
And all I want, come on
'Cause all I need , yeah is free, 'cause I'm a factory

Did mother nature tell you
"Boy, you come and go as you please"
That's what she said to me
But big brother got the keys and I got Jackson Cannery

Millionaires and mill rats live side by side here
Messed up my brother's mind, who's far from Earth
And tell me what's he worth?
The same as you, the same as me in this factory

Did mother nature tell you
"Boy you come and go as you please"?
That's what she said to me
But big brother got the keys and I got Jackson Cannery

It's 4 in the morning mother don't know
That I'm going far away
She's whispering to the moon
I hope you don't, join you soon

Baby boss, climbs up on his soapbox
Great Caesar's ghost
Knows what's best for me
Stop the bus

Did mother nature tell you
"Boy you come and go as you please"?
That's what she said to me
But big brother got the keys and I got Jackson Cannery

Big brother got the keys and I got Jackson Cannery
Big brother got the keys and I got Jackson Cannery
