Joel said that Captain Jack was the name of the drug dealer that lived on his block when he was a kid.
JMasterDean on June 21, Link. Yeah he did. Joel wrote "Captain Jack" in late ,[1][2] while sitting in his apartment in Oyster Bay, Long Island, looking out the window, trying to find inspiration for a song.
Across the street was a housing project, and he observed suburban teenagers going into the project and obtaining heroin from a dealer known as "Captain Jack". The song is sort of brutal, but sometimes it is good to be brutal and offend people—it keeps them on their toes.
General Comment Joel came up with this in his apartment across from a housing development. He observed kids from the suburbs coming into the development to buy heroin from a dealer known as Captain Jack.
The "push" is the pushing the needle with the heroin. The song is about a deadbeat 21 year old whose family is getting on with their life and he is still living at home, pushing heroin, and jacking off.
It's NOT about drinking, or the private life of a teenager. It's about the life of a loser junkie and Joel said himself it's an anti-drug song. It's kind of a bummer but it's Billy Joel at his best. General Comment Well, I can see the heroin reference in this song for sure, but I also get a feeling of grittiness like an old Robert Crumb movie or the Warriors. I think this is a song about the glamorization of the 70's drug scene.
After all, this was the time for the exploitations and the beatniks. It is a very gripping story of how sex, violence, drugs were prevalent in New York at the time.
