A terrific little song by the great folk group/duo "the Nields," with background vocal by "Moxy Fruvous." In honour of my friend Jordan for portraying Jack, in a recent production of "Into the Woods. Here is, "Jack, the Giant Killer," by the Nields.
Jack, The Giant Killer
Sticks and stones
blood and bones,
Go lock your door,
I'm strong I'm sure,
I'm big and tall,
you're not, you're small,
Cause 13 years of fighting tears are over,
are over,
Cause I'm Jack, the giant killer,
I'm Jack, the giant killer.
Don't make believe
Don't move, don't breathe,
Don't laugh at me,
Do you see me,
I'll knock you down
I'll break your crown
Yesterday I was afraid but that's over,
yeah that's over.
Cause I'm Jack, the giant killer,
I'm Jack, the giant killer.
Daddy says there's nothing here,
Daddy tells me not to fear,
but Daddy's not what he appears,
There be giants here,
There be giants here.
