    Lyrics
    St. Jimmy's comin' down across the alleyway
    Up on the boulevard like a zip gun on parade
    Light of a silhouette
    He's insubordinate
    Coming at you on the count of 1,2,1,2,3,4!

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

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

    Cigarettes and ramen and a little bag of dope
    I am the son of a bitch and Edgar Allen Poe
    Raised in the city in a halo full of lights
    The product of war and fear that we've been victimized

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

    Are you talking to me?

    I'll give you something to cry about

    St. Jimmy!

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

    I really hate to say it but I told you so
    So shut your mouth before I shoot you down ol' boy
    Welcome to the club and give me some blood
    And the resident leader of the lost and found

    It's comedy and tragedy
    It's St. Jimmy
    And that's my name
    And don't wear it out!
