My favorite part of the movie is when Terry Doolittle (
Whoopi Goldberg) tries to interpret the lyrics for the song; it's a scream! She finally says, "Mick, speak English!"
Jumpin' Jack Flash lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
Watch it!
[Verse 1]
I was born in a crossfire hurricane
And I howled at my ma in the drivin' rain
[Chorus]
But it's all right now
In fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right
I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas!
[Verse 2]
I was raised by a tooth-less, bearded hag
I was schooled with a strap right 'cross my back
[Chorus]
But it's all right now
In fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right
I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas! (Ooh!)
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 3]
I was drowned, I was washed up 'n left for dead
I fell down to my feet and I saw they bled, yeah, yeah
I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread, yeah, yeah, yeah
I was crowned with a spike right through my head, my, my, yeah
[Chorus]
But it's all right now
In fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right
I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas
[Outro]
Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas
Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas
Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas
Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas
Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas
Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas
