'70s artist: The Clash Lyrics: Jimmy hopped a rocket with his wages in his pocket And he went downtown to score He was always dreaming, had a head full of scheming But Jimmy's not dreaming anymore Oh, he was gonna hit the big time Jimmy's not dreaming He's sleeping with the fishes There's no nine lives And there's no three wishes Jimmy's not dreaming, he's sleeping with the fishes Jimmy's back was breaking and he knew he couldn't take it At the factory, not for one more day So he set his mind to stealing from the man who did his dealing Get some money for a getaway But the man with the cocaine had a gun Now Jimmy's brother is an only son Jimmy's not dreaming He's sleeping with the fishes There's no nine lives And there's no three wishes Just junk and punk and stolen televisions And the neighbor's baby bawling and a sink full of dishes Lucky Jimmy's not dreaming, he's sleeping with the fishes Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, come home Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, come home [Repeat first chorus] Used: MU.LAB, Kore Player, Proteus VX, GHi, VocPro-C, GlaceVerb, Classic Reverb, Classic Delay, two electric guitars, electric bass, POD, sorely tried patience.
