My Emotions Are Hitting the Ceiling
Used to be known as Jester Jack
Been recently writing about passion
Feels kinda comfy in this strange new role
Wondering about your reaction
Funnies were why you all came to read
And expected when seeing my name
Might lose some friends with this lovey stuff
Let's see if my role stays the same
Maybe it's age, why I'm mellowing out
Remembering my passion filled youth
Those days of love wrapped up in a dream
Those days of innocence and truth
Life's made up of many different chapters
Mine's been a contented fairy tale
There's really no chance of anything changing
Till this old guy gets older and frail
At peace with the world, for a while now
What a happy and glorious feeling
One of the fortunate inhabitants of earth
My emotions are hitting the ceiling
