- Jack: There are giants in the sky!
- There are big, tall, terrible giants in the sky!
- When you're way up high, and you look below
- At the world you've left and the things you know,
- Little more than a glance is enough to show
- You just how small you are.
- When you're way up high, and you're on your own,
- In a world like none that you've ever known,
- Where the sky's like lead, and the earth's like stone,
- You're free to do whatever pleases you.
- Exploring things you'd never dared,
- 'Cause you don't care,
- When suddenly there's
- A big, tall, terrible giant at the door.
- A big, tall, terrible lady giant sweeping the floor.
- And she gives you food, and she gives you rest.
- And she draws you close to her giant breast.
- And you know things now, that you never knew before.
- After the sky.
- Only just when you've made a friend and all,
- And you know she's big, but you don't feel small,
- Someone bigger than her comes along the hall
- To swallow you for lunch!
- And your heart is lead, and your stomach's stone,
- And you're really scared, being all alone,
- And it's then that you miss all the things you've known,
- And the world you've left, and the little you own;
- The fun is done.
- You steal what you can, and run!
- And you scramble down, and you look below
- At the world you left, and the things you know..
- The roof, the house, and your mother at the door.
- The roof, the house, and the world you'd never thought to explore.
- And you think of all of the things you'd seen.
- And you wish that you could live in-between.
- And you're back again, only different than before.
- After the sky.
- There are giants in the sky!
- There are big, tall, terrible, awesome, scary,
- Wonderful giants in the sky!
