St. Jimmy's comin' down across the alleyway
A5!                                          D5
Up on the boulevard like a zipgun on parade

A5  D5  E5  A5  x 2

My name is Jimmy and you better not wear it out
Suicide commando that your mama talked about
King of the 40 thieves and I'm here to represent
The needle in the vein of the establishment

          D5                    A5
  I'm the patron saint of the denial
          D5               E5    E5  E5E5E5E5
  With an angel face and a taste for suicidal

A5  D5  E5  A5  x 2

Cigarettes and Ramen and a little bag of dope
I am the son of a bitch and Edgar Allan Poe
Raised in the city under a halo of lights
Product of war and fear that we've been victimized

  Refrain

My name is St. Jimmy, I'm a son of a gun
I am the one that's from the way outside now (St. Jimmy)
A teenage assassin executing some fun
In the cult of the life of crime now (St. Jimmy)

I'd really hate to say it but I told you so
So shut your mouth before I shoot you down old boy (St. Jimmy)
Welcome to the club and give me some blood
And the resident leader at the lost and found (St. Jimmy)
