Eurythmics Jack Of All Trades Lyrics

Jack Of All Trades Lyrics

jack of all trades master of none

even got lost trying to find the
M1

ended up in South Shields with a couple of drunks



moved to
Crouch End suburb of cool

took a few drugs acted the fool

fell in love
with a girl on her harmonium stool



went round the world in the back of
a van

we kept in touch with our only fan

he was short and sweet lived in
Japan



the band broke up round a pool in Bangkok

to tell you the
truth it didn't come as a shock

our days were numbered like hands on a
clock



so we carried on me and the serious girl

had massive hits
all round the world

we got so big we both became ill



flew into
London with a bit of a tan

caught the train back to Sunderland to see me
old man

we had bacon and eggs from the same frying pan



to walk
down the high street

avoiding a scrap

"are you Dave
Stewart?"

"yeah"

:you're a crap"

had a pint in the Beehive then
home for a nap



got married in France to an Irish colleen

I was
thirty three she was only thirteen

I wore orange but she wore
green



now I sit and write plays for myself and my sons

they keep
me amused yeah I have much more fun

than big lines of speed at quarter to
one

on a peaceful Sunday morning
