It's a strange, strange world we live in,
Master Jack
You taught me all I know
and I'll never, never look back
It's a very strange world,
and I thank you, Master Jack
It's a strange, strange world we live in,
Master Jack
You taught me all I know,
and I'll never, never look back
It's a very strange world,
and I thank you, Master Jack
You took a colored ribbon
from out of the sky
You taught me how to use it
as the years went by
To tie up all my problems
and make them look neat
And then to sell them
to the people on the street
It's a strange, strange world we're living in,
Master Jack
You taught me all I know
and I'll never, never look back
It's a very strange world,
and I thank you, Master Jack
I saw right through the way
you started teaching me now
So someday soon
you could get to use me somehow
I thank you very much,
and though you've been very kind
I'd better move along
before you change my mind
It's a strange, strange world we live in,
Master Jack
So no hard feelings if I never,
if I never come back
It's a very strange world
and I thank you, Master Jack
You taught me all the things
the way you want them to be
But I'd like to see if other people agree
It's all very interesting
the way you disguise
But I'd like to see the world
through my own eyes
It's a strange, strange world we live in,
Master Jack
So no hard feelings, if I never,
if I never come back
You're a very strange man,
and I thank you, Master Jack
You're a very strange man,
and thanks, but no thanks,
Master Jack
You're a very strange man,
too bad, Master Jack
