Lyrics

My name is Jack and I live in the back Of the Greta Garbo Home With friends I will remember Wherever I may roam And my name's Jack and I live in the back Of the "Greta Garbo Home for Wayward Boys and Girls" We all love Jack, we live in the back Of the "Greta Garbo Home for Wayward Boys and Girls" There goes Fred with his hands on his head 'Cause he thinks he's heard the bomb And here comes Superman Who really puts it on There's lots of fun and I love to run Up and down the stairs I make as much noise as I want And no one ever cares And my name's Jack and I live in the back Of the "Greta Garbo Home for Wayward Boys and Girls" We all love Jack, we live in the back Of the "Greta Garbo Home for Wayward Boys and Girls" There's Carl over there with his funny old hair And he's never sad at all And when I grow up, I want to run As fast as my friend Paul There's the prettiest girl in the whole wide world And her name is Melody Mend And here comes Ma with brother Tom Who's probably my best friend, my best friend And my name is Jack and I live in the back Of the "Greta Garbo Home for Wayward Boys and Girls" We all love Jack, we live in the back Of the "Greta Garbo Home for Wayward Boys and Girls" My name is Jack and I live in the back We all love Jack, we live in the back Of the "Greta Garbo Home for Wayward Boys and Girls" My name is Jack and I live in the back Of the "Greta Garbo Home for Wayward Boys and Girls" My name is Jack and I live in the back My name is Jack and I live in the back
