R.I.P J.R Lyrics by Drapht

The Life of Riley

2011

[Verse 1]
Everywhere I go, it's like plain old Paul
The days unfold, no one gonna save your soul
No salt over the shoulder (Nothing)
Think you're Brendan Fevola out of control
Going to fucking up the teams rap
"Did you forget we're a team, man?"
Another side of Jimmy and I've seen it
Seems so seemless, more like a scene from Machinist
Mean as another three Hurricane Katrinas
Divas ain't got shit on Jimmy, the Christinas
Britney to Whitney, the Tinas
A prima donna, why would I wanna treat him?
Like the lead singer of Wolfmother, I leaving
Believing he was the reason I'm breathing, I'm me and
Everyone should drop to their knees then
I made Jimmy, I hate Jimmy, I break Jimmy
(R.I.P. Dead !) (J.R Jimmy Recard)

[Chorus]
Mr. J.R, rest in peace
Now, you'll never get the best of me, I keep singing that
J.R, rest in peace
Yeah, it's best now to set you free and keep singing that
J.R, rest in peace
I'ma take away the breath you breathe and keep singing that
I made Jimmy, I hate Jimmy, I break Jimmy
(R.I.P. Dead!)

[Verse 2]
I gave you life, you repaid me
Got people playing me with not even knowing what my name is
Look at you with your ladies, look at you tryna play it cool
I know you're full of piss and shallow as a baby's pool
Every jealous fool trying to pull the wool over my eyes
Is destined, always asking the question
Have I got another Jimmy, got another gimmick?
Yeah, I got another Jimmy and his death
But it sound like

[Chorus]
J.R, rest in peace
Now, you'll never get the best of me, I keep singing that
J.R, rest in peace
Yeah, it's best now to set you free and keep singing that
J.R, rest in peace
I'ma take away the breath you breathe and keep singing that
I made Jimmy, I hate Jimmy, I break Jimmy
(R.I.P. Dead!)
(The J, the I, the M, the M, the Y, the J, the I, the M)

[Verse 3]
Mr King of the bar and thinking that you a star now
Mr Get your bra out, Hannibal eat your heart
Mr Bring the car round, time to meet your maker
Mr Say the name that Lano and Woodley break up
I'm the take that take you away no more, how much cake you
Making off Jimmy when Jimmy's finished digging his grave up
Won't take part, don't play parties
And fake fuck mates tryna make money
Off of my name and it's heinous
So you're now in the range of Kurt Cobain's aim and it's dangerous
Famous James is etched in stone
Under the name I quote saying "Welcome home"
I know he's gone, but he's never forgotten
I know that I owe him a lot-a, but bye to I keep singing it
I made Jimmy, I hate Jimmy, I break Jimmy
(R.I.P Dead!) (J.R. Jimmy Recard)

[Hook]
Mr. J.R, rest in peace
Now, you'll never get the best of me, I keep singing that
J.R, rest in peace
Yeah, it's best now to set you free and keep singing that
J.R, rest in peace
I'ma take away the breath you breathe and keep singing that
I made Jimmy, I hate Jimmy, I break Jimmy
(R.I.P. Dead!)

[Outro]
(Jimmy)
Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
