Are You Pleased to Meet Me?


  My name is Jimmy are you pleased to meet me?
I see the world as it is and as it ought to be
gotta take what you need the rest is all free
I'm in love with a girl who's too blind to see

Daddy he sits in an old rocking chair
does his best to pretend that I'm not there
mother she gave up big brother he don't care
got himself a big house at the end of the square

chorus:
Are you pleased to meet me
I guess I'm doing alright
I'll be feeling much better
if I hit my marks tonight
are you pleased to meet me
I guess we'll get along fine
if you don't mind standing
at the end of the line

What are you thinking so far
I got lots to recommend
with a willingness to break
and a willingness to bend

Handful of pills and a bottle of wine
bedroom filled with stolen street signs
dust in my head from still living at home
either turning soft or turning to stone

chorus

what are you thinking so far
do I look alright
you know I'll have your back
if it comes to a fight

Music in my head and a crease in my brow
just wanna fit in but I don't know how
walk with a swagger with my clothes just right
maybe she thinks of me at the end of the night
