Jimmy gone M.I.A.
Come back Jimmy
When you go Rwanda Congo
Take me on a genocide tour
Take me on a truck to Darfur
Take me where you would go
Got static on ya satellite phone
Gotta get you safe at home
Gotta get you somewhere warm
So you get me all alone
Jimmy! (Adja)
Jimmy! (Adja)
Jimmy! (Adja)
Jimmy! (Adja)
Time and time and time and time again
You keep pushing that button but I don't know what you're sayin'
You hit me on AIM, tryin' to flip me on some game
Are you coming, are you going, are you leaving, are you staying?
You tell me that you're busy
Your lovin makes me crazy
I know that you hear me
Start actin like you want me!
You tell me that you're busy
Your lovin makes me crazy
I know that you hear me
Start actin like you want me!
Time and time and time again
You keep pushing me, what are you sayin?
You hit me on AIM, tryin' to flip me on some game
But I still don't know what you're sayin
You tell me that you're busy
Your lovin makes me crazy
I know that you hear me
Start actin like you want me!
You tell me that you're busy
Your lovin makes me crazy
I know that you hear me
Start actin like you want me!
Jimmy! (Adja)
Jimmy! (Adja)
Jimmy! (Adja)
Jimmy! (Adja)
Jimmy, I love you, hear me sing
Come back Jimmy
When you go Rwanda Congo
Take me on a genocide tour
Take me on a truck to Darfur
Take me where you would go
Got static on ya satellite phone
Gotta get you safe at home
Gotta get you somewhere warm
So you get me all alone
Jimmy! (Adja)

Time and time and time and time again
You keep pushing that button but I don't know what you're sayin'
You hit me on AIM, tryin' to flip me on some game
Are you coming, are you going, are you leaving, are you staying?
You tell me that you're busy
Your lovin makes me crazy
I know that you hear me
Start actin like you want me!
You tell me that you're busy
Your lovin makes me crazy

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

stars202 is right. I have the article sitting right in front of me. its from the magazine SPIN (Aug 2007, pg.46). It reads:
SPIN: The Kala song "Jimmy" is a good old-fashioned love story--but the courtship is in Darfur, Rwanda, adn the Congo. Did you fall in love with a UN relief worker or something?
MIA: Ah, kinda! Actually, he was a journalist. I was in Liberia and he was in Rwanda, and we were gonna meet up. He was like,"On our first date, do you wanna go on a genocide tour?" I just thought, "This shit doesn't escape me! This is me!" I wrote the song instead of actually going on the genocide tour.
genocide worker she met and he asked her out on a date and he wanted to take her on a genocide tour. she didnt go and wrote the song instead.
that was a really rough explanation, its just what i remembered reading in an interview.
of montreal does a WICKEDDDD cover of this song
@peopledontdance thanks, i didn't know about that. It is wicked
shouldn't it start 'Jimmy's gone M.I.A./ Come back Jimmy'?
i looove it. now someone explain it to me. lol
actually, i think it's a cover of a song from a bollywood film that maya used to watch when she was little. i think the verses might be written by her, though.
in the bollywood version, it was "adja" which means "come." like, "jimmy, come on, start acting like you want this, gees."
