Jackson Cannery Lyrics by Ben Folds Five

Jackson Cannery Lyrics

    Stop the bus
    I wanna be lonely
    When seconds pass slowly
    And years go flying by
    You gotta stop the bus
    We get off here

    Enough's enough
    And I'm leaving this factory
    All she wants is food on the table
    And I won't be able to bring it home

    And all I want, come on,
    Is all I need, yeh is free
    'Cos 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
    He's far from earth
    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 four 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 from his soapbox
    Great Caesar's ghost
    Knows what's best for me
    He says stop the bus

    Did Mother Nature tell you
    Boy you come and go as you please
    That's what she said to me
    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
