Teddy's rolling now most every night 
Skatin' backwards at the speed of light 
He's changed - in a thousand little ways 
He's changed - yes indeed 
You know he's movin' on metal, yes he's 
Hanging tight with the Jack of Speed 

Sheena's party - there's a case in point 
That right-wing hooey sure stunk up the joint 
He's gone - he walks through the old routines 
But he's gone - guaranteed 
He may be sittin' in the kitchen, but he's 
Steppin' out with the Jack of Speed 

You maybe got lucky for a few good years 
But there's no way back from there to here 
He's a one way rider 
On the shriek express 
And his new best friend is at the throttle more or less 

He can't hear you honey - that's alright 
Pack some things and head up into the light 
Don't stop - he'll be callin' out your name 
But don't stop when you hear him plead 
You better move now little darlin' or you'll be 
Trading fours with the Jack of Speed
