Johnny Lyrics

It`s another day at school and he`s just walking out the door
Got his rucksack on his back and his feet dragging on the floor
Always late for when he`s questioned he can`t think of what to say
Hides the bruises from the teachers hoping that they`d go away
Even though his mum and dad they both got problems of their own
Caught in a catch-22 but he`d still rather be at home
Cries himself to sleep and prays when he wakes up things might have changed
But everything`s still the same...

(But didnt you say)
You always said that I should speak up, hmm...
But it seems like all the things you said to me before meant nothing at all, because...

(Chorus)
I keep telling you that Johnny`s hitting me thats why I`m late for school
(But you never listen)
Instead you always seem to end up blaming me for things I didn`t do
(For what it`s worth)
I didn`t even want to tell you anything in case it made things worse
(Just so you know)
Everytime I say that Johnny`s hitting me; hey mom and dad it hurts...

Everyday keeps on repeating like the record on replay
Slowly getting off the bus with Johnny waiting at the gates
Like a friend who`ll smile or wave at him while calling out his name
Put his arm around his neck, whisper: "Now give me all your change!"
Too affraid to make a scene or plea with him to let him go
He just takes whatever`s coming feels the pain with every blow
Tries in vain to make himself be heard as soon as he gets home
But everything`s still the same...

(But didnt you say)
You always said that I should speak up, hmm...
But it seems like all the things you said to me before meant nothing at all, because...

I keep telling you that Johnny`s hitting me thats why I`m late for school
(But you never listen)
Instead you always seem to end up blaming me for things I didn`t do
(For what it`s worth)
I didn`t even want to tell you anything in case it made things worse
(Just so you know)
Everytime I say that Johnny`s hitting me; hey mum and dad it hurts...

You always said that I should speak up, hmm...
And to never be afraid to come and tell you if I needed to talk
(If I needed to talk, yeah)
Well I don`t know the meaning of love, hmm...
`Cause it seems like all the things you said to me before meant nothing at all, because...

I keep telling you that Johnny`s hitting me thats why I`m late for school
(But you never listen)
Instead you always seem to end up blaming me for things I didn`t do
(For what it`s worth)
I didn`t even want to tell you anything in case it made things worse
(Just so you know)
Everytime I say that Johnny`s hitting me; hey mum and dad it hurts...

I keep telling you that Johnny`s hitting me thats why I`m late for school
(But you never listen)
Instead you always seem to end up blaming me for things I didn`t do
(For what it`s worth)
I didn`t even want to tell you anything in case it made things worse
(Just so you know)
Everytime I say that Johnny`s hitting me; hey mum and dad it hurts...

I keep telling you that Johnny`s hitting me thats why I`m late for school
(But you never listen)
Instead you always seem to end up blaming me for things I didn`t do
(For what it`s worth)
I didn`t even want to tell you anything in case it made things worse
(Just so you know)
Everytime I say that Johnny`s hitting me; hey mum and dad it hurts...
