Lyrics

Well it's late and I can't tell if the wind is blowing my way
It's just my luck I'm on the inside
And my fate hangs in the balance
I believe in the breeze I can tell
That you'd better put your spinnaker up
Before you hoist the mainsail
Nine, ten, jack in the hole
In a stately home his father bequeathed on his second birthday
Was just another Wednesday morning
Which sealed his fate as mister master of all
In a secret domain wouldn't have to lift a finger in life
Or keep ahold of the code to it all
It lights up what you can't see
It's in front of me
It lights up what you can't see
It's in front of me
Now it's late and nine, ten, jack in the wheel
Life is beckoning his call these days
He never sees a morning
And a fence screens those outside of the wall from the people within
He wouldn't have to lift a finger in life
But just in case the moat fails
It lights up what you can't see
It's in front of me
It lights up what you can't see
It's in front of me
It lights up what you can't see
It's in front of me
It lights up what you can't see
It's in front of me
