i'm jack, jack the lad i'm a nasty habit i'm the joker in the pack i'm the prize exhibit alex they call him alex smart boy alex they call him alex i'm a dreamer, i'm a dream i'm a fantasy addict i'm a ghost in a ghost town i'm a derelict i'm jack, the giant killer i'm your shocking filler i'm black i'm white i'm day and night

    My Opinion:I love this song, although it's a shame that "Punker87" couldn't take the time to split up the lines...he/she seems to do it on every one of their lyric posts...which brings the question does he/she even know what they're doing?

    General Comment:Yes, the Adicts, Alex and ACWO are some seriously horrorshow cal. Best book ever, also I have a huge crush on Alex...plus I am maybe the only person who ponies nadsat at my skool so it's always fun to confuse the preppy bratchnies.

    great song, also. =D

    General Comment:It's no secret that The Adicts modeled themselves after Alex and The Droogs. Great song.

    General Comment:I think this song is about Alex Delarge from Clockwork Orange, which the Adicts love. It compares him to the great Jack The Ripper. i'm jack, the giant killer i'm your shocking filler i'm black i'm white i'm day and night, makes sense enough
