Anne Haigis - Move Away Jimmie Blue lyrics

A struck match faded like a nervous laugh

Beyond the halo of a naked bulb

and your low voice mingles with your other half

Schoolfriends in second-hand clothes

Eventually your world will shrink within four walls

Of neglected debts and stolen stereos

So move away, Jimmy Blue

Before your small, small world turns around

And swallows you

A drunk mother was the cue

For the legendary things that you do

Behind a carnival tent with mud on your face

Behind the old glue factory too

So move away, Jimmy Blue

Before your small, small world turns around

And swallows you

And swallows you

Wet feet visit the same old places

You're finding nothing new

It's a binful of tissues from made-up faces

In a townful of nothing to do

A lovematch with the moon

In a layby, while insects hum and

You got put in the darkness of a woman's womb

Jimmy Blue, Jimmy Blue

So move away, turn around

Move away

Move away Jimmy Blue

Before your small, small town

Turns around and swallows you
