Blackjack Lyrics


Scary John gets his strong arm on
He can break me and make me
Happy with his blackjackScary John has the heavy hand on
He smiles without his eyes
Nice and easy with his blackjackDon't tell me that you didn't see this coming down
Please don't say that this isn't what you wanted nowScary John gets his strong arm on
He can break me and make me
Happy with his blackjackScary John always knows what's going on
He is everywhere
Happy with his blackjackDon't tell me that you didn't see this coming down
No, no, no
Please don't say that this isn't what you wanted nowYeah, this is your American dream
Everything is simple in the white and the black
You'll never need to see the gray anymore
You will never have to be afraid
When you are happy with the blackjackI hope you're happy with the blackjack
I hope you're happy with the blackjackScary John wants to kill my song
He doesnt like the fact

Im not happy with the blackjackI don't want to hear the words that he has to sayDon't tell me that you didn't see this coming down
Please don't tell me that this isn't what you wanted now
Please don't tell me that this isn't what you asked forBe careful what you ask for
Be careful what you ask for
Be careful what you ask forYeah, this is your American dream
Everything is simple in the white and the black
You never need to see the gray anymore
You never need to be afraid
When you are happy with the blackjackI hope you're happy with the blackjack
I hope you're happy with the blackjack
I hope you're happy with the blackjack
I hope you're happy with the blackjackYeah, this is your American dream
This is your American dream
Yeah, this is your American dream
This is your American dream

Everclear is a rock band formed in Portland, Oregon, USA, in 1992. For most of its existence, Everclear consisted of Art Alexakis (b. 12 April 1962, Los Angeles, California, USA; vocals, guitar), Craig Montoya (b. 14 September 1970; bass, vocals) and Greg Eklund (b. 18 April 1970; drums). Eklund replaced original drummer Scott Cuthbert in 1994. Montoya and Eklund departed the band in 2003, but Alexakis has continued performing as Everclear with a new lineup.

After a solo tour in the fall of 2003, Alexakis decided to continue with Everclear, organizing a new band that made its debut in March of 2004. The new lineup consisted of bass player Sam Hudson, guitarist Dave French, and drummer Eric Bretl. In the summer of 2004, the band added keyboard player Josh Crawley, and swapped Bretl for former Everclear drum tech Brett Snyder. The new lineup released its first recording, a cover of Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land, that summer. A self-released EP of performances recorded for XM Satellite Radio called Closure was given out at shows in the fall of 2004.

Free of a major label, Alexakis spent the ensuing year and half slowly recording material for a new Everclear release. He admitted that the time after the breakup of the original lineup served as a "wake up call", during which he suffered his third divorce and a filing for bankruptcy. Alexakis announced the completion of the album in early 2006,titled Welcome To The Drama Club. The new band is now on Eleven Seven Music.

In August of 2008, drummer Brett Snyder left the band after four years. He was then replaced by Tommy Stewart, who previously played in bands Fuel and Godsmack.
