Johnny boy you are so neat

Johnny boy you're looking really sweet

Johnny boy, all dressed to kill

Johnny boy, you crush my will

Johnny show us what you got

Johnny time to get on stage

Johnny time to earn the wage

Johnny why you look so pale

Johnny boy, we're expecting to see some

performance

Johnny boy, you are really too much

Johnny boy, are you loosing your touch

feels like fire

Johnny times are getting together

doomsday's slowly coming up

but we didn't went to hear you suffer

we just pay you for your song

Johnny boy, the world is crumbling

that's been obvious for years

Johnny boy, what's that you're mumbling

Johnny boy, we're all playing a role

Johnny boy, all is under control

so come on now, deliver just what we

came for

Johnny boy, this might go out of hand

Johnny boy, let's leave things as they stand

we don't want you to shatter the myths

that we live on

Johnny boy, won't you come back to me

Johnny boy, no more reality

Johnny boy, don't forget that you're under

a contract

Johnny boy, better sing your song now

somehow
