(Part I - The Death Of Saint Jimmy)

           
My heart is be

        
ating from me
            
I am standing 

      
all alone
            
Please call me

  
 only
           
If you are com

     
ing home
             
 Waste another

  
 year flies by
             
 Waste a night

     
 or two
            
You taught me 

      
how to live

           
           

             
In the streets

     
 of shame
              
Where you've l

            
ost your dream

         
s in the rain
             
There's no sig

      
ns of hope
              
The stems and 

             
seeds of the l

          
ast of the dop

e
             
There's a glow

     
 of light
             
The Saint Jimm

             
y is the spark

       
 in the night
             
Bearing gifts 

     
and trust
             
The fixture in

            
 the city of l


ust
           
What the hell'

        
s your name?
            
What's your pl

             
easure and wha

       
t is your pain

?
           
Do you dream t

   
oo much?
             
Do you think w

             
hat you need i

     
s a crutch?

           

             
In the crowd o

  
f pain
             
Saint Jimmy co

            
mes without an

   
y shame
              
He says, "We'r

             
e fucked up" a

             
nd we're not t

    
he same
             
And mom and da

              
d are the ones

         
 you can blame
          
Jimmy died tod


ay
             
He blew his br

#           
ains out into 

  
the bay
           
In this state 

            
of mind, it's 

             
my own private

   
 suicide


(Part II - East 12th Street)

     
     
     
     

           
Well, nobody c

He's in his ow

             
n world and he

He'd rather be

(Part III - Nobody Likes You)

         
I fell asleep 

while
             
Watching Spike

  
 TV
             
After ten cups

     
 of coffee
             
And you're sti

        
ll not here
             
Dreaming of a 

  
song
             
But something 

      
went wrong
             
And you can't 

         
tell anyone
             
'Cause no one'

   
s here
            
Left me here a

  
lone
             
And I should h

            
ave stayed hom

e
            
After ten cups

             
 of coffee I'm

  
 thinking

(Part V - We're Coming Home Again)

      
      
      
      

             
 Here they com

            
e marching dow

n the street
             
 Like a desper

Underneath the

 The time has

going nowhere
             
 Nobody ever s

was fair now
             
 Go-carts and 

              
guns are treas

      
ures they will

 bear
             
 In the summer

 The world is 

  
spinning aroun

Around out of

The 7-11 to th

So send my lov
