Come On Down Riverside.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
Come on down riverside I'll spare you your life
Over the mountain it won't take all night
I don't know what it is or where it came from
Come on down riverside I'll spare you your life
Take your white dress off it's muddy down here
Don't be embarrassed there's nobody near
See near the river bank it fell from the sky
Heavens a fallin' an angel has died

Don't Cry.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
Don't cry, there's no reason
Don't sigh, I'm not leaving
There is someone here for you to be happy for
Don't cry, I'm not grieving
Don't lie, I'm believing
I can dry those tears and be with you ever more
And if we try we'll get by
Goodbye, it's no warning
Neck tie, Monday morning
I'll be home at 5 to meet you at the front door.

Bad Wolf.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
Hey little red, this place ain't safe alone
Hey little red, maybe I'll walk you home
These woods are dark and it's a-spooky here
I'd hate to see your pretty face in fear
Hey big sheep, how come you're so damn tall?
(all the better to see you with baby)
Hey big sheep, you're not a sheep at all... are you?
All I wanted was someone to talk to, someone to share my dreams
All I wanted was someone to speak to, somebody I can eat
Sometimes we're not what we seem
Sometimes we're not what we dream... are we?
Hey bad wolf, how come you're all alone?
(Bad wolf I thought i could trust you)
Hey Bad wolf, that looks like flesh & bone
(Bad wolf I'm coming back to haunt you)
Where did you're pretty little girlfriend go?
You're not so hungry but you're far from home

I've Got So Much Nuthin' (I Must Be Somethin').
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
I've got a great big box of nothing at all
And it's everything I've got
When I'm rich I'll keep it for myself
I'm a bastard yes it's true (a doo doo)
But I can't sing to stay afloat
Down the bottom I've got nothing to lose
I'm not everything to you
(whistling solo)
When I'm a rich bastard I'll keep the lot for my self
I'm a bastard yes it's true
I'm gonna keep it all for myself
It's all for me
Everything for my self

Just A Fool.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
Lost your love threw it away one of many of life's mistakes
Left your home walked away away cancelled phone no milk today
You're just a fool (they don't care what you do)
You're just a fool (they hardly notice you)
You're just a fool (nobody looks at you)
You're just a fool (nobody cares for you)
But when you're wearin' a smile everybody smiles back at you
It's after you your horse is dead gotta keep moving or you'll lose your head
They're on your tail swords are drawn climb in the carcass and wait 'till dawn
You're just a fool (they don't care what you do)
You're just a fool (they hardly notice you)
You're just a fool (nobody looks at you)
You're just a fool (nobody cares for you)
But when you're wearin' a smile everybody smiles back at you
(solo)
(Simultaneous Chorus and verse 1)
You're just a fool (they don't care what you do)
You're just a fool (they hardly notice you)
You're just a fool (nobody looks at you)
You're just a fool (nobody cares for you)
But when you're wearin' a smile everybody smiles back at you

Maybe Next Year.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
Maybe next year I'll be a success
I'll spend all my life having sex
With the girl that I live and love her so And she knows who she is
Maybe next year I'll get a tattoo
Perhaps of a girl in the nude
My friends and associates (big deal) will think that I'm so cool
Look at me I'm rich and famous
Look at me I'll never satisfy myself or those around me
Maybe next year I'll be an old man
Knowing I've done all that I can
To live on top of the world (oh boy) have pity on this old fool

Dead Songs For Dead People.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
My bones are aching my skin is cold but the dirt feels war around my feet
My bones are aching and my skin is cold
(my bones are aching)
But the dust feels warm and firm around my feet
My legacy is just a hand full of broken teeth
(my legacy)
And my skull can't hold the memory of my life
If Heaven's real and Jesus was all he said he was
I'll be singing dead songs for dead people in hell
Shadows come a creeping and my eyes have turned to dust
(shadows come a creeping)
And I can't see a way out of this place

Ghost Of A Man.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
Here she sits alone in a room, tears down her face
His body's cooling still in it's tomb, no darker place
He couldn't comfort her anyway
He couldn't comfort her anyway
As he watches she's grieving for him, ghost of a man
She pulls the razor over her wrist, blood fills her hand
He couldn't comfort her anyway
He couldn't comfort her anyway
Pain is over together again, two spirits fly
As her mother brings her some tea, cups break she cries
He couldn't comfort her anyway
He couldn't comfort her anyway
He couldn't comfort her anyway
He couldn't comfort her anyway

Kings In Town.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
A sunny day in Kensingtown where people smile and lecture one-another
A sunny day in Kensingtown where a little girl throws a chair at her mother
And later on when the sun goes down the gangs will walk the street
The people stomp their feet and think about another sunny day
A sunny day in Kensingtown Where home owner's laugh and swear at each other
A sunny day in Kensingtown Where junkies ask for "Jason" and run for cover
And after dinner when the TV's on and the kids are all in bed
Dad will scratch his head and wonder if he'll see another day
And even later when the lights go out and the moon is alone in the sky
No one wonders why we struggle 'till another sunny
Stop and think about a sunny
Think about another sunny day

Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
Your sunny day is over the night has come through
Sleep little dreamer do
The stars come out, the moon lights their way
Moon beams and Starlight play
But your sunny day is over the night has come through
Sleep little dreamer true

They'll Understand.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
Once I'd everything I need
And I always played the fool
Once I thought I'd be believed
Now I'll try to make it good
One Day We Know They'll Understand
(We'll hear them singing, the sad days are over)
One Day We Know They'll Understand
(We'll hear them singing, the sad days are over)
One Day We Know They'll Understand
(We'll hear them singing, the sad days are over)
One Day We Know They'll Understand
(We'll hear them singing, the sad days are over)
Once they see what I've achieved
Then they'll know what I can do
Once they've heard they'll all agree
I can fail as well as you
One Day We Know They'll Understand
(We'll hear them singing, the sad days are over)
One Day We Know They'll Understand
(We'll hear them singing, the sad days are over)
One Day We Know They'll Understand
(Don't you hear them singing, the sad days are over)
One Day We Know They'll Understand
(Don't you hear them singing, the sad days are over)
One Day We Know They'll Understand

A Certain Sadness (Part 1).
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
Take a look and you'll see you & I in love (repeat)
Look and you'll find (repeat)
All eyes were waiting as he opened the door into her room where she lay
Pale hands were shaking as he pulled back the sheet over her face cold and gray
There's something different in the air
A certain sadness that will bring you down
There's something missing deep inside
A saddening chill that comes around
Silently screaming the look on her face back through the door which she came
Cloudy and raining pale as the day her face and his were the same
There's something different in the air
A certain sadness that will bring you down
There's something missing deep inside
A saddening chill that comes around
Two silver figures peaceful and calm silently drift in the night
Frightened they gathered round the young man lifeless and pale in the night
Lifeless and pale in the night
Lifeless and pale in the night

You Look Like A Loser.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
You look like a loser but you think you're cool so I guess that's all that counts
I wrote you a cheque for eighty-five dollars and I pray it's gonna bounce
Your stupid white shades and your over-print shirt
I want to step on your neck and push your face in the dirt
You look like a loser but you act like a million bucks
Gyee Huck!

The Back Roads To Ruin.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
Down that road a ways
Is the house I grew up in
Near that town
Where people go to die
All along the back roads to ruin
Down that road and straight through the dead end
Here and there
The kids that I went to school with
From broken homes
And even broker minds
All along the back roads to ruin
A missing boy in a missing grave
(solo)
All along the back roads to ruin
A missing boy in a missing grave
All along the back roads to ruin
Down that road and straight through the dead end

Man Of My Word.
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
If I was a drinkin' man I'd drink like Richard Burton
I'd be stone dead in under 30 days
If I was a junkie I'd live like William Burroughs
Talkin' shit well into my old age
The things I do to excess
There's no doubt they're the key to my success
Don't get me wrong I'm a man of my word
Don't just assume I'm not contageous
Don't get me wrong I'm a man of my word
I'll roll away the rock of ages
Kill my blood with sugar
And I kill my teeth with the same
Never been a world-class lover
And i never will be again
The things I do to impress
Won't make the ladies undress
Don't get me wrong I'm a man of my word
Don't just assume I'm not contageous
Don't get me wrong I'm a man of my word
I'll roll away the rock of ages

Oh My Soul (It's Rock & Roll).
Music & lyrics by The Jimmy C (Jamie Coghill).
When I'm dead I won't ride my bike no more
If I'm sleeping don't bury me alone
If I break my back lifting amplifiers
park my wheelchair beside my drums
Oh my soul it's rock & roll
All the glamour and the fame
Oh my soul it's rock & roll
All the tiredness and pain
