Fat Jack Lyrics


Rolly polly fat man
Thunder down the hall
On your way to breakfast
You got to have it all
A plate of cold spaghetti
One day on the floor
Clean your chops and take time
To contemplate your stall
Every morning, pass by the mirror
Chuckle at your smiling face
So good to see you, you're looking good
Good to see you
Now you're on your way
Flag a cab to Getchell
Hey boy, Guv'nah way
Hey now, where you're headed?
The Albert's on your right
Fat Jack where are you going?

I can see you walking down the road
Fat Jack where are you going?
I can't understand how you tote your own load
Rolly polly fat man
Spin your swivel chair
Next time 'round you'll catch up
If business war is fair
5 o'clock is closing
Give yourself a raise
Didn't get no business
But you did my whole day
Every morning, pass by the mirror
Chuckle at your smiling face
So good to see you
Every morning, pass by the mirror
Strapped in a self embrace
So good to see you, you're looking good
Good to see you
Now you're on your way
Flag a cab to Getchell
Hey boy, Guv'nah way
Hey, Fat Jack, Fat Jack where you're going?
Hey, Jack, Fat Jack where you're going?
Hey, Jack, Fat Jack where you're going?
Hey, Jack, Fat Jack where you're going?
Hey, Jack, Fat Jack where you're going?
Hey, Jack, Fat Jack where you're going?

Steppenwolf is a rock band which formed in Los Angeles, California, United States in 1967. The band originally consisted of John Kay (vocals, guitar), Michael Monarch (guitar), Rushton Moreve (bass), Goldie McJohn (keyboards) and Jerry Edmonton (drums). The band is best known for their hit singles "Born to Be Wild" and "Magic Carpet Ride". They were named after the novel Der Steppenwolf by German author Hermann Hesse.

Frontman John Kay's mother escaped with him at age 4 from Soviet occupied East Germany, an event recounted in the song "Renegade" on the album Steppenwolf Seven. His family resettled in Hannover, West Germany, before moving to Canada in 1958. Kay is partially blind, hence the use of dark glasses

In 1968, Nick St. Nicholas replaced Moreve as bass player.

Steppenwolf had its origins in the Toronto blues band Sparrow, which was formed in 1964 and played coffeehouses in Yorkville. By 1967 they had settled in San Francisco.

Steppenwolf rocketed to fame after their third single, "Born to Be Wild" was used in the movie Easy Rider, as well as "The Pusher". The former song may have coined the term "heavy metal". This was followed by several more hits, including "Magic Carpet Ride" from Steppenwolf the Second, and "Rock Me" from At Your Birthday Party. Many fans consider their double album Steppenwolf Live [an extended single album in the UK] the best of Steppenwolf's releases. Monster and For Ladies Only were the band's most political albums, and are still fondly remembered by fans as two of the best rock & roll snapshots of the attitudes of the late 1960s and early 1970s.

The band broke up in 1971, and Kay pursued a solo career. Steppenwolf reformed in 1974 with the album Slow Flux, and disbanded in 1976. Afterwards, several versions of the band toured North America until Kay reformed the official version of the group in 1980.

John Kay released a solo album in 2001.
