Lyrics Jack's Obsession

Something's up with Jack
Something's up with Jack
Don't know if we're ever going to get him back
He's all alone up there
Locked away inside
Never says a word
Hope he hasn't died
Something's up with Jack
Something's up with Jack
Christmas time is buzzing in my skull
Will it let me be I cannot tell
There are so many things
I cannot grasp
When I think I've got it and then at last
Through my bony fingers it does slip like a snowflake in a fiery grip
Something's here
I'm not quite getting
Though I try
I keep forgetting
Like a memory long since past
Here in an instant
Gone in a flash
What does it mean
What does it mean
In these little bric-a-brac a secret's waiting to be cracked
These dolls and toys confuse me so
Confound it all
I love it though
Simple objects nothing more but something's hidden through a door
Though I do not have the key
Something's there
I cannot see
What does it mean
What does it mean
I've read these Christmas books so many times
I know the stories and I know the rhymes
I know the Christmas carols all by heart
My skull's so full it's tearing me apart
As often as I've read them something's wrong
So hard to put my bony finger on
Or perhaps it's really not as deep as I've been led to think
Am I trying much too hard
Of course
I've been too close to see
The answer's right in front of me
Right in front of me
It's simple really
Very clear
Like music drifting in the air
Invisible but everywhere
Just because I cannot see it doesn't mean I can't believe it
You know I think this Christmas thing is not as tricky as it seems
And why should they have all the fun
It should belong to anyone
Not anyone in fact but me
Why I could make a Christmas tree
And there's no reason
I can find
I couldn't handle
Christmas time
I bet I could improve it too and that's exactly what I'll do
Hee hee hee hee hee
Eureka
I've got it
