Jack's Beanstalk

Jack’s Beanstalk

Shirley Jackson @ socan Dec. 2008

Everybody’s climbing some Beanstalk
That’s the way Jack’s story goes.
What did they do to get to the top
Only their conscious knows.

Everybody’s climbing some ladder,
Just to see what they can get,
Was it hard work or dedication?
Or did they sleep with anyone yet?

Bridge
Everybody’s stepping on someone
To see how high they can go?
They’ll be kissing some **** on their way down.
If they step on to many toes.

Bridge

If you can’t go no further
When you think you have it all,
And there’s nothing left to work for
Hold on tight when you make that fall.

If you can’t go no higher,
And you think you’ve reached the top
There’s nothing left to work for
Hold on tight …..
Hold on tight when you make that drop.
