Sad was the day and sharp was the noise when the hang out kid saw that his punishment came He spent too much time in praying for joy It's all about a boy First came the flashes followed by crashes when jealousy rose in the form of a pistol Just ashes of wishes remained in his dishes It's all about a boy Jerry can dance,finally Left all his plans so far behind Jerry can dance it's plain to see For the last time tonight Between the sky and the planks of the scaffold when the wind it kneels down and says: God bless you boy His prayer for bliss it had been raffled it's all about a boy Jerry can dance, finally Left all his plans so far behind Jerry can dance it's plain to see Fot the last time tonight Jery can dance finally Left all his plans so far behind Jerry can dance, it's hellish to see For the last time tonight What have you done sonny-boy now you're dancing there on your own You've got your rope you're jerking alone
