Happy Jack

Happy Old Jack is back on track

Had a rough go of it for a week or so

Wondered if it was really ever going to end

I'm almost back to normal but it's slow

Wasn't totally sure I'd make it through

Felt like my head was about to explode

Slept for about ten hours every night

And six hours every day on overload

I don't wish this on my worst enemies

But maybe just a small dose could strike

Perhaps a wee bit couldn't hurt methinks

I'd just like to share and share alike

It's been like an out of body experience

I'll behave myself from this day forward

I promise to behave from this day forward

Trust me, it's just what the doctor ordered

Happy Old Jack is back on track

Had a rough go of it for a week or so

But all's well that ends well they say

I'm almost back to normal but it's slow
