Homecoming Songtext - Green Day

Part I: The death of St. Jimmy

My heart is beating from me
I am standing all alone
Please call me only if you are coming home
Waste another year flies 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 signs of hope
The stems and seeds of the last of the dope
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
What the hell’s your name
Whats your pleasure and what is your pain?
Do you dream too much?
Do you think what you need is a crutch?
In the crowd of pain. St. Jimmy comes without any shame
He says “we're fucked up”
But we're not the same
And mom and dad are the ones you can blame

Jimmy died today

He blew his brains out into the bay
In the state of mind
in my own private suicide


Part II: East 12th ST.

And nobody cares
And nobody cares
Does anyone care if nobody cares?
And nobody cares and nobody cares
Does anyone care if noboday cares?
Jesus 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

Where'd you go

Part IV Rock and roll girlfriend
*written and sung by Tre'

I got a rock n roll band
I got a rock n roll life
I got a rock n roll girlfriend
And another ex-wife
I got a rock n roll house
I got a rock n roll car
I play the shit out the drums
And I can play the guitar
I got a kid in new york
I got a kid in the bay
I haven't drank or smoked nothin'
In over 22 days
So get off my case


Part V: We're coming home again

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
The time has come and it's going nowhere
Nobody ever said that life was fair now
Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear
In the summer heat
The world is spinning
Around and around
Out of control again
From the 7-11 to the fear of breaking down
So send my love a letterbomb
And visit me in hell
We're the ones going

Home
We're comin' home again

I started fuckin' running
Just as soon as my feet touch ground
We're back in the Barrio
And to you and me, that's jingle town

Home
We're comin' home again

Nobody likes you
Everyone left you
They're all out without you
Havin' fun!
