[Part 1: The Death Of St. Jimmy]

My heart is beating from me

I am standing all alone

Please call me only if you are coming 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 lost your dreams in the rain

There's no signs of hope

The stems and seeds of the last of the dope

There's a glow of light

The St. Jimmy is the spark in the night

Bearing gifts and trust

The fixture in the city of lust

What the hell's your name?

What's your pleasure and what is your pain?

Do you dream too much?

Do you think what you need is a crutch?

In the crowd of pain

St. Jimmy comes without any shame.

He says, “We're fucked up but we're not the same.

And mom and dad are the ones you can blame.”

Jimmy died today

He blew his brains out into the bay

In the states of mind

It's my own private suicide

[Part 2: East 12th St.]

[2x]

Well nobody cares

Well nobody cares

Does anyone care if nobody cares?

Jesus filling out paperwork now

At the facility on East 12th St.

He's not listening to a word now

He's in his own world and he's daydreaming

He'd rather be doing something else now,

Like cigarettes and coffee with the underbelly,

His life's on the line with anxiety now,

And she had enough, and he had plenty

Somebody get me out of here

Anybody get me out of here

Somebody get me out of here

Get me the fuck right out of here

So far away

I don't want to stay

Get me out of here right now

I just wanna be free

Is there a possibility?

Get me out of here right now

This life like dream ain't for me

[Part 3: Nobody Likes You!]

[Written and sung by Mike Dirnt]

I fell asleep while watching spike TV

After 10 cups of coffee and you're still not here
