What does "St. Jimmy" mean?

The almost demonic alter-ego of Green Day's Jesus of Suburbia, St. Jimmy is the patron saint of Chaos and the Underground. He was born with a pistol in his right hand and a syringe in his left. His wings are the blood and carnage of the urban jungle. His occupation is drug dealer. His goal is anarchy. He is a being too wild and dangerous to die at the hands of anyone except himself. St. Jimmy is the Angel of Destruction. And he's comfortable with that.

There's a glow of light
The St Jimmy is the spark in the night
Bearing gifts and trust
The fixture in the city lust
What the hell's your name
Whats your pleasure and whats your pain?
Do you dream to much?
Do you think what you need is a crutch
In the crowd of pain. St. Jimmy comes without any shame
He says “we're fucked up”
But we're not the same
And mom and dad are the ones you can blame

Jimmy died today

He blew his brains out into the bay
In the state of mind it's my own private suicide

St. Jimmy - what does it mean?

The figment of the Jesus of Suburbia's imagination, created by his father's Rage and his mother's love. The Patron Saint of the Denial, the Suicide Commando that your mother talked about, The King of Forty Thieves. He is the son of a bitch and Edgar Allen Poe. St. Jimmy encourages Jesus into doing drugs and basically telling everyone to fuck off. During this time Jesus finds the person to counter Jimmy, Whatshername. A Extraordinary Girl that helps Jesus realize what Jimmy is doing to him. In the end he blows his brains out in the bay after the song Letterbomb which is a break up letter from Whatshername

Guy 1: Dude I just want to kill all of these people they keep pissing me off!
Guy 2: Chill out, don't turn into St. Jimmy.
