Jimmy pulled me into traffic
Just to see how it would feel
He was chasing down a high
Said he'd kill me if I squealed

He thought he was a poet
He thought he was a prince
But his god left in the fifties
And it hasn't been back since

I couldn't see the daylight
Through the shadow of his rage
He told me you're a smart one
At least for your age

But he couldn't really love me
Until I'd seen someone die
My middle class abstraction
Could never satisfy

I said where is your country now
Where is your country now

Pointing out the windows
Blown out in World War II
The longing in his voice
Over the screaming of the tube

Right and wrong lifted him on
Good counsel's wings
Living free in pieces
Is the best of modern things

Show me where your father
Threw you in the Thames
To teach him how to swim
And he never made amends

So Jimmy coughed and coughed up
All the citie's grime
To love him felt so simple
That it couldn't be a crime

I said where is your country now
Where is your country now
