Jimmy Recard

Let’s take it back to 1982 just quickly
I came into this world, and my Ma thought
Ima name this little boy Paul
Plain old boring old Paul
And I always thought
If I had a different name, would my life be different?
Like
Imagine if I had a name like Jimmy Recard,
Evolve from the Joker, become the King of the cards,
King of the castle, King of the bar-stool,
Loved by all - Nobody thinks he's an arsehole,
Pass the parcel to Jimmy,
Everybody pass quicker than getting offered a glass of Kilkenny,
If anything, Jimmy's the man of the millenium,
No two men can better him - Not even Lenny & Carl,
Cause I swear he's rare as seeing Henny in your mini-bar,
Face for the cinema like Andy Garcia,
But compared to Jimmy, Andy's so last year,
Brassieres, are thrown at his feet,
Ladies love him 'cause he's got a little dimple in his cheek,
(bleahh) Making me sick to my stomach,
And there's nothing you can do - You gotta love him
(You gotta love him it's -)
J! R! Jimmy Recard!
Raise your glass for the King of the bar, it's
J! R! Jimmy Recard!
Women swingin' their arse, ladies swinging their bras for
J! R! Jimmy Recard!
All my people singing "hoorah! hoorah!" for
J! R!
Come and get down with J! R!
He was always in the right place at the right time
Had a lifeline wiser than 95 percent of the sci-fi
followers, had his collar popped down like it should be,
Living off laughter like Lano & Woodley,
And it could be 'cause he had the world in his palm,
Every week, a different girl on his arm,
His mum a doctor - His dad a rock star,
Concoct a little something, nine months they popped out a
J! R! Jimmy Recard!
Raise your glass for the King of the bar, it's
J! R! Jimmy Recard!
Women swingin' their arse, ladies swinging their bras for
J! R! Jimmy Recard!
All my people singing "hoorah! hoorah!" for
J! R!
Come and get down with J! R!
(The 'J'. The 'I'. The 'M'. The 'M'. The 'Y'. The 'J'. The 'I'. The 'M'.
It's Jimmy! It's Jimmy!
The 'J'. Jimmy, no matter what.
The 'I'. Jimmy, no matter what.
The 'M'. Jimmy, no matter what.
It's Jimmy!)
It's like everything he touches, turns to gold - It's amazing,
Destiny on his side like Jay-Z pushing up daisies,
A breath of fresh air, the best there is,
Like getting in the electric chair and live,
Untouchable - He'd never perish,
Reason? What luck was for,
He was the fairest of them all,
Like "mirror, mirror on the wall",
Like Wirrapanda on the ball,
Mum comes up with Paul when there's names like Jimmy,
Any plan or gimmick, every man will mimic,
Jimmy, opening more doors than a Jimmy,
That's why he's always fuckin' swimming in his winnings,
The name's ringin' in your ears, man, isn't it,
Livin' in jealousy like the prisoner to visitors,
He was oblivious to sunshine, day-night,
Would my luck change if I was given a name like
J! R! Jimmy Recard!
Raise your glass for the King of the bar, it's
J! R! Jimmy Recard!
Women swingin' their arse, ladies swinging their bras for
J! R! Jimmy Recard!
All my people singing "hoorah! hoorah!" for
J! R!
Come and get down with J! R!
