lyrics

I don’t know who I am
Someone tell me how I feel
Is this the Promised Land
Or just a place with mass appeal

You drove me to the edge
I’m hanging by my fingernails
I haven’t got a hope
I don’t believe in fairy tales

We don’t know who you are
You live across a great divide
We’re diametrically opposed
But anatomically the same inside

You drove us to the edge
You herded us like buffalo
You handed out the debt
In inequitable ratios

You drove me to the edge
I’m hanging by my fingernails
I haven’t got a prayer
I don’t believe in miracles

You don’t know who we are
You must thing we’re insignificant
Together greater than apart
We are the ninety-nine per cent

You drove me to the edge
I’m hanging by my fingernails
I haven’t got a hope
I don’t believe your fairy tales

You drove us to the edge
You herded us like buffalo
If we’re all in the red
Who the bloody hell do we all owe

Jim Pearson UK

"You never can be sure what kind of project Jim will come up with next, but you can always be sure it's gonna be pretty darn good." Tom Robinson BBC 6 Music.

Jim's songs range from the whimsical to some of the most bitter and somber themes, yet always with a paradoxical childlike spirit that meets them head-on – wide-eyed and full of hopeful energy.
