Spring-Heeled Jim

Spring-Heeled Jim - Morrissey Lyrics

Spring-heeled Jim winks an eye 

He'll "do", he'll never be "done to" 

He takes on whoever flew through 

"Well, it's the normal thing to do" ... ah ... 



Spring-heeled Jim lives to love 

Now kissing with his mouth full 

And his eyes on some other fool 

So many women 

His head should be spinning 

Ah, but no ! 

Ah, but no ! 

But no !

Ah, no !





Spring-heeled Jim slurs the words : 

"There's no need to be so knowing

Take life at five times the 

Average speed, like I do" 

Until Jim feels the chill 

"Oh, where did all the time go ?" 





Once always in for the kill 

Now it's too cold 

And he feels too 

old 

Too old

Mmm, old... 





La, la, la, la-la, la ...
