Jimmy came down from the northwest, Said there's a couple of things I wanna get off my chest, Like eat some food you're looking like a ghost And how come you always hurt, The ones that you love most I've pulled myself together, It tore us apart I've been on the M1 for most of the night You're born and then you live, then you die You get one try and I've tried everything A cannon's loose you were telling the truth And I lied - caught offside - so don't say anything And Jimmy said words I hadn't heard before Like licentiousness and what about getting a job But the blood in your body as you're coming down It stings like the cold wind, That blows round your friends You're born and then you live, then you die You get one try and I've tried everything A cannon's loose you were telling the truth And I lied - caught offside - so don't say anything Like a moon soaked summer night, On a rainy Westbourne Park day We're together we're apart, Hell I'm crazy I'm wrong and you're right You're born and then you live, then you die You get one try and I've tried everything A cannon's loose you were telling the truth And I lied - caught offside - so don't say anything You're born and then you live, then you die You get one try and I've tried everything A cannon's loose you were telling the truth And I lied - caught offside - so don't say anything Just try everything just try everything
