Sad was the day
   and sharp was the noise
   when the hang out kid saw
   that his punishment came
   He spent too much time
   in praying for joy
   It's all about a boy
   First came the flashes
   followed by crashes
   when jealousy rose
   in the form of a pistol
   Just ashes of wishes
   remained in his dishes
   It's all about a boy
   Jerry can dance,finally
   Left all his plans
   so far behind
   Jerry can dance
   it's plain to see
   For the last time tonight
   Between the sky
   and the planks of the scaffold
   when the wind it kneels down
   and says: God bless you boy
   His prayer for bliss
   it had been raffled
   it's all about a boy
   Jerry can dance, finally
   Left all his plans so far behind
   Jerry can dance it's plain to see
   Fot the last time tonight
   Jery can dance finally
   Left all his plans so far behind
   Jerry can dance,
   it's hellish to see
   For the last time tonight
   What have you done sonny-boy
   now you're dancing there
   on your own
   You've got your rope
   you're jerking alone
