lyrics

What's gonna happen to my car?
What's gonna happen to my house?
What's gonna happen to my stuff?
And my off-shore bank account?

What's gonna happen to my job?
What's gonna happen to my career?
What's gonna happen to my doubt?
What's gonna happen to my fear?

How long before all trace is gone
That I was ever even here?

What's gonna happen to my mind?
What's gonna happen to my soul?
What's gonna happen to my thoughts
If I should fail to make parole?

What's gonna happen to the moon?
What's gonna happen to the stars?
What's gonna happen to the world?
Who's gonna save the universe?

What's gonna happen when I'm gone?
I guess it's none of my concern

If I should die before I wake
I pray my organs you will take
I wish I'd been a better man
Sum of my parts are greater than

Before my spirit fades away
And muscle, blood and bones decay
Let this be my saving grace
Don't let my body go to waste

What's gonna happen to my blood?
What's gonna happen to my skin?
What's gonna happen to my eyes?
When will they see the light again?

What's gonna happen to my bones?
What's gonna happen to my brain?
What's gonna happen to my lungs?
When will they breathe the air again?

What's gonna happen to my heart
Oh let it fall in love again

about

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.
