The Others Lyrics

S06E04 - Substitute

John your wedding’s in October
Help Helen pick out the color scheme
You met Jack Shephard at the airport
He specializes in spinal surgery
Let’s get married shotgun style in Vegas
Maybe this is all destiny

Back from Sydney you work at the box company
You missed the conference your boss is mad at you
Call it vacation, “You’re Fired”
Randy Nations, Hugo says is a bit of a douche
Hurley owns the company
He’ll get you a job with his temp agency

So go out and recruit
Cause you’re a substitute

4 8 15 16 23 42
Each on is respectively one of you
John Locke, Hugo, Sawyer and Sayid
Jack, Sun or Jin, it’s a mystery to me
If you have your name in the cave
You can be a candidate

Richard I’m sorry I punched you in the throat
I want you to come with me
I never would have kept you in the dark like Jacob did
I’ll tell you everything
Second chances are seldom
The kid said “You know the rules”
But don’t ever tell me what I can’t do

Hello James
John I thought you were dead
I am I’m the ghost of Christmas Past
All I care about is whiskey
And you ain’t scared
I go with you, need to put on some pants
Richard says John is gonna kill me
Of mice and men I am George and he is Lenny

And he’s trying to recruit
Cause he’s a substitute

Chorus

What kind of animal would you describe yourself as John
Rose will find you a job that you can do
My knives arrived from Australia
Helen I’ll never walk down the aisle with you
Miracles don’t exist
I like Earl Grey tea
Ben teaches European History

And I’m a teacher too
But I’m a substitute

There are choices you have three
Do nothing
Be new Jacob
Or go home with me
