  • Jimmy said when he got married nothing was going to change
    Jimmy said when he got older everything would stay the same
    Jimmy said he would never stop hanging out with the crew
    but Jimmy was a hypocrite liar, what are you going to do?

    Saw Jimmy on the street today
    He didn’t even return my wave
    He just turned around
    turned around and walked away

    Jimmy and I used to be friend
    Saw him on the street now and then
    but now he won’t even talk to me
    says I need to grow up just like him

    REPEAT CHORUS

    I’m not bitter about that
    that Jimmy won’t talk or wave
    but we used to be the same
    now he puts me down for it

    I understand the choice
    I understand wanting to make a change
    but to put down what you once were
    that just makes you a hypocrite

    BREAK

    But on the day Jimmy got married everything started to change
    and when Jimmy got older nothing stayed the same
    Overnight Jimmy changed stopped hanging out with the crew
    I expected more from Jimmy, but what are you going to do?

    Saw Jimmy on the street today
    He didn’t even return my wave
    He just turned around
    turned around and walked away

    Jimmy and I used to be friend
    Saw him on the street now and then
    but now he won’t even talk to me
    says I need to grow up just like him

    REPEAT CHORUS
