Getting sick and tired of all the things they say Those silly rules, they tell him to obey His fuckin' teachers, his parents and the law He's had enough of it, won't take it anymore
His mum, she doesn't get it His father is confused He has to fight his battle He knows he's gonna lose
Chorus 1: Oh Jimmy, at the age of seventeen Oh Jimmy, just like Jimmy Dean Oh Jimmy, rebel with a cause Oh Jimmy, fighting all those fuckin' laws
Wants to fight the system, any way he can He speaks his mind, but no-one understands They call him public enemy number one Accused of crimes he never ever done
His mum, she doesn't get it His father is confused He has to fight his battle He knows he's gonna lose
Chorus 2: Oh Jimmy, convicted for a crime Oh Jimmy, you have to do some time Oh Jimmy, you didn't stand a chance Oh Jimmy, denied the right to prove your innocence
Getting sick and tired of all the things they say Those silly rules, they tell him to obey His fuckin' teachers, his parents and the law He's had enough of it, won't take it anymore
His mum, she doesn't get it His father is confused He has to fight his battle He knows he's gonna lose
