Lyrics

Uncle jonny

When everybody else refrained, my uncle jonny did cocaine. he's convinced himself right in his brain, that it helps to take away the pain
Hey, jonny. hey what you say, jonny?

I want to go out tonight
Cut me little closer to the city lights
Levitation ain't your only friend
Levitation coming back again
You feel a burning in your body core
It's a yearning that you can't ignore
And I want to go out tonight
S-s-s-superman and hold on tight
But he's convinced himself right in his brain, that it helps to take away the pain
Hey jonny. hey what you say jonny?

My appetite ain't got no heart
I said my appetite ain't got no heart
Shocking people when you feel that pull
Shock 'em drop 'em when you know it's full
I feel a burning in my body core
It's a yearning that you can't ignore
Now I got to go out tonight
Hey, jonny, I got faith in you man
I mean it, it's gonna be all alright
He's convinced himself right in his brain that it helps to take away the pain
Hey jonny. hey, what you say jonny?

Tell us what's going on
Feels like everything's wrong
Hey, what you say jonny?
And if the future is real, jonny, you've got to heal
Hey, what you say jonny?

When everybody else refrained, my uncle jonny did cocaine
