He’s the man with the dangerous smile
All the ladies dig his funky style
When he walks down the street
All sideways and crooked, looking down at his feet
Yeah

He’s just strutting his stuff
All siamese and shit
Watch him drop on down

‘Cause he’s got a mouth full of crickets
A mouth full of crickets
It’s the Jack Martin story
A mouth full of crickets

Coney Island
You look like you’re from Coney Island
All stylin’, from Coney Island
With his peg-legged pants
And his tailored up-tight suit
The pavement just rolls by

It’s the Jack Martin story, yeah
Will he ever go away?
I don’t think he’ll ever go away
‘Cause he’s got a story to tell
Yes, he does

Hey, here’s one
Did you ever the one about the titanium sheath?
Don’t bring it here
I can’t use it
I don’t want it
I don’t need it
I can’t use it
Yeah

This one’s the Jack Martin story
It’s the Jack Martin story
All in bright lights
All in bright lights
I hear you go to bath with a Pain Teen
No, I just likes to hug people

Wow
He got a mouth full of crickets
Sideways smile
All the ladies like his style
They love his style
Love his style
It’s the Jack Martin story
It’s the Jack Martin story
Yes, it is
