When The Lights Go Out

Jimmy, Jimmy,where have you been?
We had a date.
It's four am and you'refive hours late again.
Jimmy said he had a feeling tonight...
He couldn' t go to sleep,it was getting light...
Drank some coffee and
I got a buzz,so
I got myself a fifth with a friend.
And then the lights go out, andhe said it'll be the same as yesterday,
Hey-hey.When the lights go out,it'll be the same,
Hey-hey.Simi
Valley, where the hell is that?
When I woke up,
I swore I'd quit,no more, no more,
I swore I swore.
And then the lights go out, andhe said it'll be the same as yesterday,
Hey-hey.When the lights go out,it'll be the same,
Hey-hey.I slept with the door unlockedwhen
I left her...
I thought she might come back,even though
I knew herbetter than that,and
I was better off,
I did it anyway....
I'd wake and hear her voice decayinto police sirens far away.
Jimmy said he had a feeling tonight...
He couldn't go to sleep,it was getting light...
And then the lights go out...
