Jack the Lad

[Verse 1]
Lawrence in the desert
How was he to know
Under so much pressure
From the men back home?

[Pre-Chorus]
Play with fire, you must be mad
Are you only Jack the Lad?
Play with guns, you must be bad
Or hiding something, Jack

[Verse 2]
Telling lies in public
Breaking codes at home
Underneath the blankets
For another role

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell these lies, you must be mad
Are you only Jack the Lad?
To feast with panthers every night
You must be careful, Jack!

[Chorus]
Don't let them try to restrain you
This is your only religion
Don't let them try to detain you
You're not the only fool

[Post-Chorus]
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
Will fall

[Verse 3]
Philby in the desert
Looking for a phone
Waiting on the pavement
For a call from home

[Pre-Chorus]
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!

[Chorus]
Don't let them try to restrain you
This is your only religion
Don't let them try to detain you
You're not the only fool

[Post-Chorus]
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
We all fall, even Jack the Lad

[Chorus]
Don't let them try to restrain you
This is your only religion
Don't let them try to detain you
You're not the only fool

[Post-Chorus]
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
Will fall
