He told you
That he'd never write a love song again
And he told you
That he enjoyed the blues of being lonely
But it's so cliché
Here he goes and falls in love
With someone that he ought not to
But it doesn't matter
He thinks he's a mystery
But you read him like an open book
Moping Jack now makes his way
With his head up high and a phony smile
Moping Jack now makes his way
With his head up high and a smile on his face
So take him to your place and let him be awkward
In his buttoned out shirt he's never really comfortable
Have you witnessed it
Captain Cool was there when she came down with a deceiving smile
Click-clacking high heel boots
Tells you that he cares and then he shoots you right between the eyes
Moping Jack now makes his way
With his head up high and a phony smile
Moping Jack now makes his way
With his head up high and a big old smile on his face
And I feel
And I feel like I've been fading out
And I feel
And I feel
And I feel like I'm fading out
And I feel
And I feel
And I feel like I've been fading out
Yeah it's so cliché
Here he goes and falls in love
With someone that he ought not to
But it don't matter
He thinks he's a mystery
But you read him like a book, yeah
Moping Jack now makes his way
With his head up high and a phony smile
Moping Jack now makes his way
With his head up high and a smile on his face
Smile on his face
Smile on his face
Moping Jack now
Moping Jack now
Moping Jack now
