[Verse 1]
Hey Jack Kerouac
I think of your mother
And the tears she cried, they were cried for none other
Than her little boy lost in our little world that hated
And that dared to drag him down
Her little boy, courageous
[Chorus]
Who chose his words from mouths of
Babes got lost in the wood
Hip flask slinging madmen, steaming cafe flirts
They all spoke through you
[Verse 2]
Hey, Jack
Now for the tricky part
When you were the brightest star
Who were the shadows?
Of the San Francisco beat boys
You were the favorite
Now they sit and rattle their bones
And think of their blood-stoned days
[Chorus]
You chose your words from mouths of
Babes got lost in the wood
The hip flask slinging madmen, steaming cafe flirts
In Chinatown, howling at night
Hey Jack Kerouac

Her little boy, courageous

Babes got lost in the wood
Hip flask slinging madmen, steaming cafe flirts
They all spoke through you

Hey, Jack
Now for the tricky part

You chose your words from mouths of
Babes got lost in the wood
The hip flask slinging madmen, steaming cafe flirts
In Chinatown, howling at night
