lyrics

I met him in a basement bar
Amongst the shine of diode stars
He said to me his name was Johnny
I knew that he was a commie
He had the deepest bluest eyes
I bought each of his filthy lies
I knew his crimes were undetected
My heart completely unprotected

Oh Johnny, I know so well you’re good for nothing
Oh Johnny, nothing matters anymore

I’ve had my faith and I’ve always served well
My country first and the rest would follow
I could never fear, I could never doubt
But now none of this matters
My little world has been shattered
Finally I’m free, but I can’t get out

Oh Johnny, I know so well you’re good for nothing
Oh Johnny, nothing matters anymore when you’re around

A red star stuck on his leather jacket
He says it’s just out of force of habit
I saw his eyes on the rising sun
My heart is caught in confusion
My soul has been disillusioned
Could I ever stop what I have begun?

Oh Johnny…

Don’t you answer any of my questions
Don’t you tell me any of your secrets
Don’t you ever tell me anything at all
Oh Johnny
