When we first met I didn't know what to do. My old love lines were all worn out on you. And the world walked round at my mouth. They lit me up and they snuffed me out. [chorus]. And I was everybody's boy. But soon that thrill just fades. To be the love of one true heart. Or the Jack of all parades. You won't know who to thank. You won't know who to blame. It's just a part of the Murdering Game. 'Cos down in the fleshpots. Where they pay you in pounds. They're laughing like drains. And baying like bloodhounds. For the Jack of all parades. The Jack of all parades. Once I knew a girl. That looked so much like Judy Garland. That people would stop and give her money. And everybody was Frankie Jimmy or Bobby. Not the Jack the Jack of all Parades. Oh the Jack the Jack of all Parades. Oh the Jack of all Parades.. Now the way that I feel is no longer news. You know my love and how to refuse it. Cause you know where the door is. And how to use it. Oh you know you do. But from my chequered past. To this shattered terrace. Where you can't keep your mind off. the Crimes of Paris. And you can't keep your peace. And try to forget it. And I can't forgive you. For things you haven't done yet. Oh I was anybody's boy. But soon that thrill just fades. To be the love of one true heart. Or the Jack of all parades. When we first met I didn't know what to do. My old love lines were all worn out on you. And the world walked 'round my mouth. I didn't mean to say it. I just blurted it out. As you pretended not to notice. Or be taken aback. And I loved you there and then. It's as simple as that. Oh I was everybody's boy. But soon that thrill just fades. To be the love of one true heart. Or the Jack of all parades. To be the love of one true heart. Or the Jack of all parades.
