Jack of Shadows - Hawkwind

Jack of Shadows nocturnal outlaw

Daemon of darkness brother to the night

Jack of Shadows what's he hanging out for

King of the dimensions the other side of light

And when he passes

He casts shades of mystery black

Flowing like molasses

It's only Jack of Shadows on his way back

To the kindom of thieves

Before the skies crack

Jack of Shadows cloak of constellations

Draped around his body blanking out his face

Jack of Shadows don't believe in God he

Steals from the future fades without a trace

And when the flames flare

Flickering forms of velvet dark

He plays his games there

It's only Jack of Shadows he's lit up by a spark

To run into the umbra as fast as a shark

Jack of Shadows ultravoilet eyesight

Giving him the vision that cats-eye infrared

Jack of Shadows watch him as he flies right

Through all of the umbras quicker than the dead

And when he passes

He casts shades of mystery black

Flowing like molasses

It's only Jack of Shadows on his way back

To the kindom of thieves

Before the skies crack
