Lyrics:
Verse 1
Jimmy and Johnny, two friends of mine,
Skinheads what they claim.
Outside similarities but no,
They don't feel the same.
See Johnny thinks Jimmy's a mod,
And Jimmy thinks Johnny's a punk.
Jimmy listens to ska,
And Johnny likes Last Resort.
Jimmy and Johnny in the trenches, going down tonight,
Drinking Guinness, smoking 555's.
Once you're in the middle,
everything's all right.
Pre-Chorus
Skinhead tats and a Fred Perry,
There's a war in the cemetary.
Started fighting, stop drinking,
What the fuck were they thinking?
Chorus
Jimmy and Johnny, tell me what you were seeing.
Jimmy and Johnny, tell me what you were seeing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Verse 2
Jimmy had his two-tone girl,
Back on his scooter that night
Johnny had a jacked up Chevy,
That could blow you right off, off the line.
Pre-Chorus
Skinhead tats and a Fred Perry,
There's a war in the cemetary.
Started fighting, stop drinking,
What the fuck were they thinking?
Chorus
Jimmy and Johnny, tell me what you were seeing.
Jimmy and Johnny, tell me what you were seeing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Chorus
Jimmy and Johnny, tell me what you were seeing.
Jimmy and Johnny, tell me what you were seeing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
That's it. ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| I think the St Jimmy connection is a stretch and a half; there may be some validity to the NOFX connection, but since NOFX sucks ass I'm going to ignore it. My feeling on this song has always been that it concerns two friends who basically agree to disagree, coming from different schools of the same subculture. Maybe they fight, but they're still both 'drinking Guiness, smoking 555's' and once it comes down to that, bootboys/skinheads/moonstompers have gotta stick together, cause we're not what we were, and can't afford to fight each other, when there are greater battles to be fought. | |
