jimmy's just a bum
who wants to hold on to the past
he tries to be a tough guy

but dumb kids come in last
he says he'll win her heart
his love life is a mess

he calls his dream girl destiny
and she calls him obsessed


he says he'll take my girl away
but i don't really care
and i don't worry

i know that he wants her
but it's plain to see
that jimmy's dreamgirl

she's in love with me

jimmy calls his dream girl

on the phone real late at night
he says that they were meant to be
and she lets him know she's mine

he offers her his haircut
his nice shoes
a b-ball game

all i've got is my guitar
this band and half a brain


he says he'll take my girl away
but i don't really care
and i don't worry

i know that he wants her
but it's plain to see
that jimmy's dreamgirl

she's in love with me

he says he'll take my girl away

but i don't really care
and i don't worry
i know that he wants her

but it's plain to see
that jimmy's dreamgirl
she's in love with me
