Jackson Cannery Songtext
Stop the bus
I wanna be lonely
When seconds pass slowly
And years go flying by
You gotta stop the bus
And get off here
Enough'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

woah, woah
woah, woah

Millionaires
and mill rats live side by side
Messed up my brother's mind
He's far from earth
And tell me, what's he worth?
Nothing!
The same as you, the same as me
In this factory

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

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

Big brother got the keys
And I got Jackson Cannery
