Michael Esper - Homecoming (Broadway) lyrics

I. The d**h of St. Jimmy [ST. JIMMY] My heart is beating from me I am standing all alone Please call me only If you are coming home Watch another year fly 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 sign of hope The stems and seeds of the last of the dope [ST. JIMMY and JOHNNY] 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 [ST. JIMMY] What the hell's your name? What's your pleasure, what is your pain Do you dream too much? [ST. JIMMY and JOHNNY] Do you think what you need is a crutch? In the crowd of pain St. Jimmy comes without any shame He says "We're f**ed up" But we're not the same And Mom and Dad are the ones you can blame [ST. JIMMY] Jimmy died today He blew his brains out into the bay In the state of mind [ST. JIMMY and JOHNNY] In my own private suicide II. East 12th Street [THEO and GERARD] Well nobody cares, well nobody cares Does anyone care if nobody cares? Well nobody cares, well nobody cares Does anyone care if nobody cares? [THEO and GERARD] Jesus is 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 She had enough and he's had plenty [ALL] Somebody get me out of here! Anybody get me out of here! Somebody get me out of here! Get me the f** right out of here! [JOHNNY] So far away I don't want to stay Get me outta here right now I just wanna be free Is there a possibility Get me out of here right now [JOHNNY and WILL] This lifelike dream ain't for me! III. Nobody Likes You [WILL] I fell asleep while watching Spike TV After ten cups of coffee And you're still not here Dreaming of a song When something went wrong But I can't tell anyone 'Cause no one's here Left me here alone When I should have stayed home After 10 cups of coffee I'm thinking... [ALL] Where'd you go? [WILL] Nobody likes you Everyone left you They're all out without you Having fun [ALL] Where'd you go? [WILL] Everyone left you Nobody likes you They're all out without you Having fun [ALL] Where'd you go? Go, go, go? IV. Rock and Roll Girlfriend [MIGUEL] Jeez! I got a rock and roll band I got a rock and roll life [MIGUEL and HEATHER] I got a rock and roll girlfriend! [MIGUEL] And another ex-wife I got a rock and roll house I got a rock and roll car I play the sh** out the drums [HEATHER] And he can play the guitar! Yeah! [MIGUEL] I got a kid in New York I got a kid in the Bay I haven't drank or smoked nothing In over 22- [WILL] Don't wanna be an American Idiot! [MIGUEL] -days, so get off of my case! [MIGUEL and HEATHER] Off of my case! [ALL] Off of my case! V. We're Coming Home Again [JOHNNY] Here they come marching down the street Like a desperation murmur of a heart beat Coming back from the edge of town Underneath their feet [JOHNNY and TUNNY] The time has come and it going nowhere Nobody ever said that life was fair now Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear In the summer heat [WILL] The world is spinning Around and around Out of control again From the 7-11 to the [WILL and JOHNNY] Fear of breaking down! [JOHNNY] So send my love a letterbomb And visit me in hell We're the ones going... [JOHNNY, TUNNY, and WILL] Home. We're coming home again Home. We're coming home again [JOHNNY] I started f**in' running As soon as my feet touched ground [TUNNY] We're back in the Barrio But to you- [JOHNNY, TUNNY, and WILL] -and me, that's Jingletown, that's... [ALL] Home. We're coming home again (x8) Nobody likes you Everyone left you They're all out without you Havin' fun!
