Jimmy sleeps in the bathroom

He loves the colour white

He'll stay in three for hours

Sometimes through the night

Mom and Dad wait in the kitchen

Drinking Coffee and holding hands

They talk around the circles

Cause they don't understand



Sometimes he looks through you

As if you were not there

He doesn't know it hurts you

He's gone to far to care

Then he'll steal your money

Steal your love and bleed you dry

Give it all to the Candy Man

Who thought him how to fly



Lately he's been clever

He shoots up between his toes

That way he hides the track marks

He thinks that no-one knows

It makes you want to hold him

And help him through the night

Put your arms around him

And tell him it's allright



He's there in every city

He's there in every town

hanging in 'til the next day

Another deal going down

But he won't let you hold him

Or help him through the night

Jimmy sleeps in the bathroom

'Cause he loves the colour white
