Zoals ook Elvis en de Beatles (Lady Madonna) kwamen de Stones nog even in rock’n’roll-/beatstijl in het magische jaar. Jumpin’ Jack Flash.
Watch it!
I was born in a crossfire hurricane
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain
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
I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag
I was schooled with a strap right across my back
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
I was drowned, I was washed up and 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, fuck my head
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
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
