A D E
in the streets of shame ,
A D A D E
where you’ve lost your dreams in the rain ,
A D E
there’s no sign of hope ,
D A E
the stems and seeds of the last of the dope ,
A D E
there’s a glow of light ,
A D A D E
the st . jimmy is the spark in the night ,
A D E
bearing gifts and trust ,
D A E
the fixture in the city of lust

F#m E A

in the crowd of pain , st . jimmy comes without any shame ,

he says “we’re fxxked up” ,
D E
but we’re not the same ,
D E
and mom and dad are the ones you can blame
F#m E A

in the state of mind in my own private suicide

in the summer heat
