lyrics

Little Jimmy's got his backside in a bind
Returned his tape on time, but did not rewind
Now he's flyin' home, card flickin' in his spokes
A bag of chips, some gum, a couple stolen Cokes.

And ooooh Little Jimmy never learns
And all Little Jimmy does is burn his Bridges and Candles

All the kids are livin' down at the playground
But, Little Jimmy finds a way not to be around
He's off and at 'em doin' something he shouldn't
He knows it's wrong, he tried to stop but he couldn't

And ooooh Little Jimmy never learns (He takes on more than he can handle)
And all Little Jimmy does is burn his Bridges and Candles

And Little Suzi is his mischief queen
Makes him slugs to feed the quarter machine
And they're both livin' the adolescent dream
But Jimmy....has got his backside in a bind

Now the day's recedin', all the parks are clearing out
But Jimmy's hangin' late, wonderin' what's about
Mom is screaming from the living room window
Second floor, her voice carries where the winds blow

And ooooh Little Jimmy never learns (He takes on more than he can handle)
And all Little Jimmy does is burn his Bridges and Candles
And ooooh Little Jimmy never learns (He takes on more than he can handle)
And all Little Jimmy does is burn his Bridges and Candles
And ooooh Little Jimmy never learns (He takes on more than he can handle)
And all Little Jimmy does is burn his Bridges and Candles
