[Verse 1]
E A
Jack was really a jester
E A
Who held his one good eye on the queen
E A
And there sat the king beside her
E A
He's pointing his sword up and down with every scene
E A
And the wizard's in the corner
E A
Catching peanuts between his teeth
E A
And the dogs lying in the shadow in the archway
E A
There's one good dog sleeping filled with good ol' dog dreams

[Verse 2]
E A
He slipped next to the wizard
E A
Whispered something deep, to the bottom of his ear
E A
A little joke, the one about the farmer's daughter
E
How she was stomping on grapes
A
Coming up with blue feet and beer
E A
And he slipped behind the queen
E A
Where the fools go the rich don't mind
E A
Lately the king's knights have turned a little rusty
E A
And his halo - I mean his crown
E A
Has gone and slipped down around his eyes

[Verse 3]
E A
The wizard's in the corner
E A
Pulling lizards between his knees
E A
And the dog he been long gone
E A
Gone to pitch for the winning team
E A
Fifty-two, I mean fifty-four bicycles on the wall
E A
Ready to ride, ready to ride til the last of them falls
E A
Jack's been cooking in the kitchen all this time
E A
Whompin' up some biscuits for us all
A
For us all
A
For us all
