by Four Jacks and a Jill<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This song is dedicated to the exemplary staff who have chosen to leave rather than receiving the CoVid jab.\u00a0 Although they are incredible, and we will miss them, it is their right to choose:\u00a0 Dawn Bru, Hillary Bru, Anthony Farias, Amanda, and others which we have not yet heard about.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This song went to #5 in the United States in 1968.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

{ CHORUS }\u00a0 <\/span><\/strong><\/span>[ A D A-G-A ] It’s a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack.\u00a0 <\/span>[ A D A-G-A ] You taught me all I know and I never look back.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0 [ D E A-G-A ] It’s a very strange world and I thank you, Master Jack.<\/span> <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

[ D A ] You took a coloured ribbon from out of the sky,
\n[ D A ] and taught me how to use it as the years went by,
\n[ D A ] To tie up all your problems and to make them look neat,
\n[ D E ] And then to sell them to the people in the street. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

#2. [ D A ] I saw right through the way you started teaching me, now.\u00a0 – – – [ D A ] So, someday soon you could get to use me somehow.\u00a0 – – – [ D A ] I thank you very much, you know, you’ve been very kind.\u00a0 – – – [ D E ] But, I’d better move along before you change my mind. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

{ CHORUS }\u00a0 [ A D A-G-A ] It’s a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack.\u00a0\u00a0 [ A D A-G-A ] So no hard feelings if I never come back.\u00a0\u00a0 [ D E A-G-A ] It’s a very strange world and I thank you, Master Jack.<\/span> <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

#3. [ D A ] You taught me all those things the way you’d like them to be.\u00a0 – – – [ D A ] But I’d like to see if other people agree.\u00a0 – – – [ D A ] It’s all very interesting the way you describe,\u00a0 – – – [ D E ] But I’d like to see the world through my own eyes. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

[ PARODY ] [ D A ] Beatitudes can only try the best that they can<\/span><\/strong>
\n[ D A ] This CoVid virus has us short of woman and man<\/span><\/strong>
\n[ D A ] To vaccinate or not just shows us that we are free<\/span><\/strong>
\n[ D E ] But this is not exactly how I thought it would be<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/strong>[ D E A-G-A ] It’s a very strange world and I thank you, Master Jack.
\n<\/span><\/strong>[ D E A-G-A ] It’s a very strange world I hope we see you, Master Jack.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
