Spring-heeled Jim
Boz Boorer / Morrissey
Spring-Heeled Jim winks an eye
He'll do, he'll never be done to
He takes on whoever flew through
Well, it's the normal thing to do
Spring-Heeled Jim lives to love
Now kissing with his mouth full
And his eyes on some other fool
So many women
His head should be spinning
Ah, but no!
Ah, but no!
Spring-Heeled Jim slurs the words
There's no need to be so knowing
Take life at five times the
Average speed, like I do
Until Jim feels the chill
Oh, where did all the time go?
Once always in for the kill
Now it's too cold
And he feels too old
Too old
(And they catch him
And they say he's mental)
