Who - Happy Jack 1967
Happy Jack wasn't old, but he was a man.
He lived in the sand at the Isle of Man.
The kids would all sing, he would take the wrong key,
So they rode on his head in their furry donkey.
The kids couldn't hurt Jack,
They tried, tried, tried.
They dropped things on his back,
They lied, lied, lied, lied, lied.
But they couldn't stop Jack, 'or the waters lapping,
And they couldn't prevent Jack from being happy.
But they couldn't stop Jack, 'or the waters lapping,
And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy.
The kids couldn't hurt Jack,
They tried, tried, tried.
They dropped things on his back
They lied, lied, lied, lied, lied.
But they couldn't stop Jack, 'or the waters lapping.
And they couldn't prevent Jack from being happy.

Guys. So they wrote on his head and then hurried on key.
-
Why am I thinking the lyrics go "so they rode on his head in their blurry on key"?Not "furry donkey".I guess I could be wrong.

@rodycaz Greatest lineup.
-

I was like Jack, glad i was too.. if i had been aware of what was going on around me(thanks dad- who ever you are- and mom we wont go there) and all the awfulness that surrounded me growing up. Once i figured out that i could make it all go away i would have, but never did..

@Bernard5323 There are parts in this song where Moon actually follows the melody of the song. The best example of this are the last few seconds.My favorite part of the drums on this over all is the section that starts at about 1:18. Especially live versions of it. Listen to Live at Leeds and you'll know what I mean.

What I like most about this song are the striking drumbeats...
-
how does entwistle make that cool thumping sound?
-
Why arent they playing their 60s splattered punk shit, smashing breaking blowing shit up? Because of Mods?
