Jack Of Speed

(album: Two Against Nature - 2000)

Teddy's rolling now most every night
Skating backwards at the speed of light
He's changed in a thousand little ways
He's changed yes indeed
You know he's moving on metal, yes he's
Hanging tight with the Jack of Speed

Sheena's party there's a case in point
That right-wing hooey sure stunk up the joint
He's gone he walks through the old routines
But he's gone guaranteed
He may be sitting in the kitchen, but he's
Stepping out with the Jack of Speed

You maybe got lucky for a few good years
But there's no way back from there to here
He's a one way rider
On the shriek express
And his new best friend is at the throttle more or less

He can't hear you honey that's alright
Pack some things and head up into the light
Don't stop he'll be calling out your name
But don't stop when you hear him plead
You better move now little darling or you'll be
Trading fours with the Jack of Speed
