JOHNNY Lyrics by Ray Laurél

MANIC PIXIE DREAM BOY

2022

[Verse 1]
Johnny got picked on a lot
The kids would call him names like "ballet boy"
He dropped out after middle school
Then gave up on his dancing, his pride and joy

[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, no
Ooh-ooh, there's no place for you
Ooh-ooh, no
Ooh-ooh, where's that face I knew?

[Verse 2]
Johnny got a nine-to-five
He hates it but it pays off his cigarettes
Thinks he's kinda into guys
Told his dad, but he got mad and kicked him out

[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, there's no place for you
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, where's that face I knew?

[Verse 3]
I think he goes by Joanie now
She's happy and she loves herself
She moved out of this rotten town
She's dancing in the city every night

[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, no (Night)
Ooh-ooh, there's a place for you
Ooh-ooh, no (Night)
Ooh-ooh, there's that face I knew
