04 Love, Sex, And Fancy Things

The city referred to in the lyrics of this song is Sheffield, England, where I spent four happy years as a student in the early 1980s. There are a couple of (now disappeared) places referred to in the song which need an explanation. 'The Hole In the Road' was a subterranean junction of subways in the middle of a roundabout in the city centre which was open to the sky. Since the trams came to Sheffield it was filled in. And 'The Wapentake' was an underground bar where we went to listen to rock and heavy metal played very loudly. That's gone too. As has the Limit Club, but it's obvious what that is. The City Hall is still there though.

The song isn't really about Sheffield. It's about nostalgia for places in which we were once happy but which turns out to be for the people we knew there rather than the bricks and mortar.

JUMPIN’ GUNS (Cooper/Jones)
© 2025 All Rights Reserved

Oh jumpin’, jumpin’, jumpin’ guns
Oh jumpin’, jumpin’, jumpin’ guns
Doin’ this dance with you baby, it really ain’t no fun

You go from nought to sixty 
Shout when there’s no fire 
Please take a beat, take fifty
Stop to think a while

You’re stressed when there’s no urgency 
Run when you could walk 
Fight when there’s no enemy 
Going off half-cocked

Oh jumpin’, jumpin’, jumpin’ guns
Oh jumpin’, jumpin’, jumpin’ guns
Doin’ this dance with you baby, it really ain’t no fun

You overreact every time 
No matter what the news
Each step you tread could be a mine 
You’re gonna blow a fuse 

You’re seein’ danger everywhere
Behind each mundane scroll
One day you might slip and fall
Right down that big black hole

Oh jumpin’, jumpin’, jumpin’ guns
Oh jumpin’, jumpin’, jumpin’ guns
Doin’ this dance with you baby, it really ain’t no fun

Jumpin’ guns, it ain’t no jive
When your trigger finger’s twitchin’
I duck, I dodge, I swerve through life 
When both barrels you’re givin’

Oh jumpin’ jumpin’ jumpin’ guns
Oh jumpin’ jumpin’ jumpin’ guns
Doin’ this dance with you baby, it really ain’t no fun
