Lyrics The Living End – Jimmy
Text:
Jimmy — what’s your vote?
You don’t have to repay them after all
Jimmy told of those who’d been cheated
But were never defeated
Just morally wrong
Jimmy told of those who were jaded
Their colours had faded
Like they didn’t belong
And they lied — a new life they were seeking
Yes they lied — now their plans are leaking
Jimmy told of those who had made it
And others who’d paid it
But the price was wrong
Everybody’s too busy fighting
To bother deciding
What has to be done
Jimmy — it seems as though it can be sold
As easy as a story
Can be told
You don’t have to repay them after all
Jimmy had a dream he would make it
And he wouldn’t fake it
Like the others had done
He believed in those who were jaded
Whose colours had faded
Like they didn’t belong
Now we’re all faded
