Jack's Room


Katie Melua & Mike Batt


Sunday, mum was cleaning up Jack's room
I could call it the beginning of this household's doom
after knowing her son for eighteen years
she did not expect to find these items here

In Jack's room, behind the cupboard 
she finds pretty stockings and dresses and heels
in Jack's room, behind the cupboard
she finds pretty dresses and heels

Down the stairs in a confused state of mind
mother tells dad "our son's got something to hide"
as he follows her back up to Jack's room 
really not knowing what to presume

In Jack's room, behind the cupboard
they find pretty stockings
and dresses and heels
In Jack's room, behind the cupboard 
they find pretty dresses and heels

And now Jack's walking home
thinks there is nothing wrong
he even stops to buy some flowers
for his dearest folks
'cause they're such a joke
they want to clean his room for hours

And now Jack's in a confused state of mind
mother asks him
he doesn't know how to reply
then dad suddenly goes bright red and says
"I've got something to confess...

In Jack's room, behind the cupboard they're
my pretty stockings
and dresses and heels
in Jack's room, behind the cupboard
they're my pretty 
dresses and heels"

In Jack's room, behind the cupboard
they find pretty stockings
and dresses and heels
in Jack's room, behind the cupboard 
they find pretty dresses and heels
