Johnny got shot through the grease

drove his wheels through guarantee

walked about with a monkey on his back

torn pages of a coward's almanac

he got stuck between y-z

first letters of his own alphabet



Everythin' is cut and dry

the rooster crows 3 times

as he turns and goes

the rooster crows 3 times



A wise man told him about a song

first he had to blow the dust from his tongue

and Johnny said

cannot see the mess I'm in

can't seem to plug my organ in



Everythin' is cut and dry

the rooster crows 3 times

as he turns and goes

the rooster crows 3 times



Wished I had a bad, bad memory

for all my so-called friends to see

so keep on readin' between the lines

a frog's tongue freakin' at a jar of flies

if we never meet again

it's too soon

so let's not pretend
