I think this song ties together almost everything. I think that jimmy and Jesus are the same person because all the letters in the cd jacket are addressed to "J" for jimmy or Jesus, and the song states that "st. jimmy is a figment of your father's rage and your mother's love" and "your not the Jesus of suburbia" this explains the "oh therapy can you please fill the void" in part 4 of Jesus of suburbia. his home life made him, "Jesus," lose his Identity so he when to therapy. and I think that in homecoming when jimmy dies its the death of the alter ego. that’s what is meant by "he blew his brains out into the bay in the state of mind in my own private suicide." So with the death of jimmy, the rebellious drug using city punk, Jesus goes to “filling out paperwork” |

i think this is jimmy getting jesus started on drugs becasue of all his problems. becasue in the beginning its talking about the problems he has in life and i agree with mitch_reilly that the chorus is the drug trip. and i belive the whole song shows that you can't fix your problems thorugh drugs. because even after the drug trip he still has the problems in the slow relaxed beat. and i agree with ArianeTheFool that the use novacaine to convey that jesus is still a kid. but also to protray the numbness that you get with drugs and after all the "trips" he has the song still ends in the relaxed beat to reveal that the drug use is not best answer to the problems |
