Johnny Come Last

(album: Ole Black 'n' Blue Eyes - 2007)

Well ask me that question oh ask me again
When you swore that you knew me you didn't say when
Happiness, Happiness comes in a jar
You're a brave little Cunt but you took it too far
And all of the tantrums and each of the lies
They took ages to think up that's no big surprise
And last but not least you're a good talented boy
But you stole all the answers and killed all the joy

Well I loved you before but I don't any more
You're just burned out and vicious and dumb
And I don't like the way that you mean what you say
And I don't like what you've become

Tell me you mean it I'll tell you, you don't
You say that you'll try but I know that you won't
Well there's one God knows where and there's one in Japan
Was a hundred degrees you got shit scared and ran
Well Johnny go easy Johnny go fast
Johnny come lately and Johnny come last
Housewives are heroes and everyone's bent
Well if this was a joke well it's some accident

Well I loved you before but I don't any more
You're just burned out and vicious and dumb
And I don't like the way that you mean what you say
And I don't like what you've become

Well give a month and I'll write you line
Or two maybe three though it might take some time
I'll write them for drunks and I'll sing them for cash
Well you know that old saying about gone in a flash?
They wrote that for me and it fits me so well
It's been my fucking pleasure I bid you farewell
Green is the colour but don't it fade fast?
Remember me fondly, Johnny come last

Well I loved you before but I don't any more
You're just burned out and vicious and dumb
And I don't like the way that you mean what you say
And I don't like what you've become
