Jack Killed Mom Lyrics - Acid Tongue - Jenny Lewis

When Jack was born he winked at Mom 

Her pretty face was the first he saw 

Was Jack wrong 'cause he loved Mom? 

Things were bad, 'fore they got worse 

Mom would pinch Jack until it hurt 

Mama thought her boy was cursed 

You leave (leave!) 

You leave (leave!) 

You leave that boy to me 

Oh, Jack, I love him 

But you leave that boy to me 

You leave (leave!) 

Leave (leave!) 

Leave that boy to me 

I know his condition and soon he will be free

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

Off at school Jack was cruel 

He'd become the bully's bull 

Was Jack wrong to mimic Mom? 

And after school on the corner stool 

Mom was kissing on the Golden Rule 

Jack had become the teacher's fool 

You leave (leave!) 

You leave (leave!) 

You leave that man to me 

Oh, Mom, I love you, and soon you will be free 

With my will (will!) 

And my hands (hands!) 

Like old Solomon 

And in your honor 

I'm going to cut that man in half

All the lessons Mama would teach 

Books from Rome and ancient Greece 

Men push rocks up stony mountains 

Turning one fish into five thousand 

And a king went blind from his mother's love 

A terrible rage came over Jack 

His Mama lying on her back 

The one who taught him right from wrong 

But knew no better all along 

She got ran through when Jack killed his Mom 

(Bang bang!) 

Don't leave (leave!) 

Don't leave (leave!) 

Don't leave this world to me 

Oh, Mom I love, I didn't mean to set you free 

With my will (will!) 

And my hands (hands!) 

Like old Solomon 

Oh Mom, I love you, I didn't mean to set you free 

Was Jack wrong? (Jack killed Mom!) 

Was Jack wrong? (Jack killed Mom!) 

Was Jack wrong? (Jack killed Mom!) 

Jack killed Mom! 

Jack killed Mom! 

Jack killed Mom! 

Jack killed Mom! 

Jack killed Mom! 

Jack killed Mom! 

Oh 

When Jack killed his Mom!
