Jack Lyrics - And Also The Trees

Jack went out one stormy day 

To see where his feet would go 

They took him from his sleeping town 

Across land both high and low 

They took him through the velvet streets 

Where men walked on their toes 

And down the slopes 

Where bottled hell 

And blind men lie in rows 

Jack walked through the treacle swamps 

And crossed the salt dry plains 

He passed he house where tall, thin dogs 

Pulled on their iron chains 

He heard the songs of seed germ girls 

Who warmed the frozen fields 

And as Jack walked 

He felt the corn 

Push up his tired heels 

He saw the heathens' heather hills 

He watched a boiling sea 

He met a man with wooden hands 

Carved from an old fruit tree 

The old man said he dreamt at night 

Of blossom roots and knives 

And that night when 

Jack went to sleep 

He dreamt of damson pies 

Jack walked out one stormy day 

To see where his feet would go 

They took him north, they took him east 

But never took him home
