There Goes Johnny Songtext

von Kevin Ayers

There goes Johnny he looks like death
It's a major achievement just to take a breath
He went to paradise he got bored
Even fell off his girlfriend

It doesn't pay to think

Well there goes Jenny she's dressed in black
Tried to go somewhere had to turn back
She broke the contract she broke the rules
This time she's really going

It doesn't pay to think

You can reach inside your mind
But the only thing you'll find
Is that you're dumb deaf and blind just like the rest
And the answers that you need
Are in a language you can't read
And you know you must get free from this curse
But it just gets worse and worse and worse

There goes Suzy she looks so cute
All dressed up in her birthday suit
She saw it coming she watched it go
She went out blowing bubbles
Bye Suzy
