or hiding something, Jack 
 
Telling lies in public 
Breaking codes at home 
Underneath the blankets 
for another role 
Tell these lies you must be mad 
Are you only Jack the lad? 
To feast with panthers every night 
you must be careful, Jack

Philby in the desert 
looking for a phone 
waiting on the pavement 
for a call from home 
Play with fire you must be mad 
Are you only Jack the lad? 
Turn your back on friends you had 
They must have hurt you, Jack
