Lyrics
Jack sits over in the corner,
Saying, “what a good boy am I”
Eating desert with his fingers
Digging into a plum Christmas pie
Jack is smitten as a young boy
For a girl living up the hill
He helps her fetch pails of water
There’s nothing he wouldn’t do for Jill
And Jack grew….
And Jack grew….
And he grew some more...
You see….
Jack’s growing up in a nursery rhyme
You hear his name time after time
He’s all bound up and stuck in a book
Ask Mother Goose if you can take a look
And if you see him, ask him, to step outside
Cause you can’t grow old in a nursery rhyme
No, you can’t grow old in a nursery rhyme
Jack’s not very good, not very bad
He’s quite quick for a nimble lad
For a shilling, Jack will show his trick
Of not blowing out the candlestick
Time has come to move from the shoe
Jack isn’t sure what he will do
With pride he starts to frame with silt
Jack will say it’s the house he built
And Jack grew….
And Jack grew….
And Jack grew...
You see….
Jack’s growing up in a nursery rhyme
You hear his name time after time
He’s all bound up and stuck in a book
Ask Mother Goose if you can take a look
And if you see him, ask him, to step outside
Cause you can’t grow old in a nursery rhyme
No, you can’t grow old in a nursery rhyme
(Bridge)
Jack, You’re living in a world of fantasy
Jack, You have no sense of reality
Jack, Come with me before the story ends
Or you’ll need to start all over again
And now….
Jack’s coming out of his nursery rhyme
And you’ll see his face all of the time
He’s wasted a long time in a book
Mother Goose let him out to take a look
And when you see him, tell him, to stay outside
Because you can’t grow old in a nursery rhyme
No you can’t grow old in a nursery rhyme
No you can’t grow old in a nursery rhyme
