Elvis Costello - Shadow and Jimmy lyrics

Your rating:


Shadow and Jimmy were always yesterday's news 

Jimmy's a bowler, Shadow rents out his green bowling shoes 

Late Friday night when the bars are all shuttered and dark 

He shadows back Jimmy to the lot in the lost trailer park 

For shadow and Jimmy all the weekends end up the same 

If it's Saturday night, then it must be the hockey game 

After cold beer and barbecued ribs the night is complete 

With wrestling stories and elegant bones 

That are tired of walking and on their way home 



Chorus 

And they talk about the women 

And they look at the girls 

They'll never know the ways of the world 

They've got a mouthful of much obliged 

And a handful of gimme 

And the love for each other 

Of Shadow and Jimmy 



For Shadow and Jimmy now the story is told 

There's nothing to hold on to and no one to hold 

Men without women are like fish without 

water to swim in 

With their eyes bugging out 

They flop on the beach 

And look up at the girls 

Who are just out of reach
