Jimmy wakes up hoping today will be a better day
Hoping somehow today will be better than yesterday
Frustration, hate, and lies and anger are all he sees today
What a lame day when Jimmy hasn't even left his bed
If Jimmy leaves his room he knows just what's in store
A house full of drama and he can't take no more
Then his brother stops and glares and stares and says
"You think you're better than me!"
What's going on why won't they let Jimmy be?
And Jimmy said...
[Chorus:]
I'm not going home tonight
It just don't feel right
I'm gonna have to stay out late
I've gotta figure this one out
On these lonely streets oh yeah
And it's the only way
Jimmy's parents argue about the house
"Where's the dinner?" Dad yells
Mom says, "I had to buy a blouse."
Why is the house such a mess, what did you do today?
Mother yells back, "You just don't love me anyway!"
The gum in Jimmy's mouth had already lost it's taste
When Jimmy decided to give up and walk away
Then he found himself on the streets feeling all alone
And all he wants now is to be back home
And Jimmy said...
