Johnny died one night, died in his bed Bottle of whiskey sleeping tablets by his head Johnny’s life passed him by like a warm summer’s day If you listen to the wind you cand hear him play Don’t you know, don’t you know
Dont ya know Dont ya know that you are a shooting star Dont ya know Dont ya know that you are a shooting star And all the world will love you just as long as long as you are

And you neglected I called you out don’t please I said we’re stronger than this now You resurrected mistakes years past it seemed And they exist to still haunt you
And still you feel like the loneliness Is better replaced by this I don’t believe it this way And I can see the fear in your eyes I’ve seen it materialize Growing stronger each day
I could see it as you turned to stone Still clearly I can hear you say Don’t leave, don’t give up on me Two weeks and you ran away I remember don’t lie to me You couldn’t see that it was not that way Swear I never gave up on you
I wanted nothing but for that trust again And brick by brick you would take it You feared of phantoms and none exist but you You still saw fit to destroy it
And still you feel like the loneliness Is better replaced by this I don’t believe it this way And I can see the fear in your eyes I’ve seen it materialize Growing stronger each day
I could see it as you turned to stone Still clearly I can hear you say Don’t leave don’t give up on me Two weeks and you ran away I remember don’t lie to me You couldn’t see that it was not that way Swear I never gave up on you
And you neglected I called you out don’t please I said we’re stronger than this now You feared of phantoms and none exist but you You still saw fit to destroy it
And I can see the fear in your eyes I’ve seen it materialize Growing stronger each day
I could see it as you turned to stone Still clearly I can hear you say Don’t leave don’t give up on me Two weeks you ran away
I could see it as you turned to stone Still clearly I can hear you say Don’t leave don’t give up on me Two weeks and you ran away I remember don’t lie to me You couldn’t see that it was not that way Swear I never gave up on you
Welcome to my secret lair on Skullcrusher Mountain I hope that you’ve enjoyed your stay so far I see you’ve met my assistant Scarface His appearance is quite disturbing But I assure you he’s harmless enough He’s a sweetheart, calls me master And he has a way of finding pretty things and bringing them to me
I’m so into you But I’m way too smart for you Even my henchmen think I’m crazy I’m not surprised that you agree If you could find some way to be A little bit less afraid of me You’d see the voices that control me from inside my head Say I shouldn’t kill you yet
I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you But I get the feeling that you don’t like it What’s with all the screaming? You like monkeys, you like ponies Maybe you don’t like monsters so much Maybe I used too many monkeys Isn’t it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?
I’m so into you But I’m way too smart for you Even my henchmen think I’m crazy I’m not surprised that you agree If you could find some way to be A little bit less afraid of me You’d see the voices that control me from inside my head Say I shouldn’t kill you yet
Picture the two of us alone inside my golden submarine While up above the waves my doomsday squad ignites the atmosphere And all the fools who live their foolish lives may find it quite explosive But it won’t mean half as much to me if I don’t have you here
You know it isn’t easy living here on Skullcrusher Mountain Maybe you could cut me just a little slack Would it kill you to be civil? I’ve been patient, I’ve been gracious And this mountain is covered with wolves Hear them howling, my hungry children Maybe you should stay and have another drink and think about me and you
I’m so into you But I’m way too smart for you Even my henchmen think I’m crazy I’m not surprised that you agree If you could find some way to be A little bit less afraid of me You’d see the voices that control me from inside my head Say I shouldn’t kill you yet I shouldn’t kill you yet I shouldn’t kill you yet
Where I’m livin’, it’s hard to say Wasting my time at the corner of dude and catastrophe Where I’m livin’, it’s hard to say But I feel fine at the corner of dude and catastrophe
Woke up by the pool again Must have played the fool again Wonder what them hooligans put on the grill that stinks Kind of like burnt fur and regurg’ed drinks With an undertone of the acorn And leather that’s laid on Thick like Liz Claiborne Step over with big trepidation Lift up the top off the meat cooking station To discover my homie Todd I said “Oh my God What grim façade Do you meet me with in my wakefulness?” I had too many Stellas and they all was crisp Must I rise up in the morning with my squirrel desisted From the world? Insisted, as I did This instant, that Him up in heaven again is premature? If only reality would concur Poke him with the tongs. Dude won’t wake up Put him on the lawn; Ray’s about to cook a steak up And this ain’t no kind of mausoleum Got to get the high degree on Todd’s onomatopoeia Got already all used up — I mean he sizzled — Ain’t nothing left but char, bone, and gristle My heart is fissile: I mean it could break Like crystal; he never learned to whistle. Don’t rake His cadaver up, wassamadda with your mind? He ain’t a lawn clipping. We been knuckleheads since old times Dig out the batting helmet and the bat ‘Cause we’re all about to have a funeral, and that’s that We’ll do it after breakfast. We’ll do it up proper We’ll drop all his ashes out the Airwolf copter All singing up dirges, all spreading out blossoms And it’s gonna b-b-b-be frikkin’ awesome!
Where I’m livin’, it’s hard to say Wasting my time at the corner of dude and catastrophe Where I’m livin’, it’s hard to say But I feel fine at the corner of dude and catastrophe
Six bong rips later: we ain’t going to the helipad Standin’ ’round hella sad Wonder where them Stellas at All these dudes ain’t huge on sentiment Wtill they want to say a little something to the benefit Of layin’ Todd’s soul to rest I cold regressed, contemplated old regrets And said, “Man why he even got to do a thing Like pass out on the Bar-B-King?” I’m tryin’ to bring from like recesses in my mind A word or two that wouldn’t prove unkind Aligned as he was with the less-than-angelic Trafficking black tar smack & psychedelics In that little-ass van of his, and drunk doing it Knowing what the right thing to do was but eschewing it It’d seem pretty probable Flames are audible That’s the duty that Todd’ll pull Not just in death, but in after-that Like the bat out the h-e-double-vertical-slat But inbound in the case of this rodent Like when he got peeled-out on and ‘sploded Or indeed when he got shanked in the joint Hella causing me to wonder if there’s even a point To our shepherdly tending of his life’s ending Bet he’s chilling at Friendly’s And gonna be back in the neighborhood shortly Discussing how awesome it is to be portly Reporting the slant he just got on with Blister (Drank till his wrists hurt Boned the ghost of your sister) The dude’s a bucket kickster when he has to be And this one wasn’t like a masterpiece So yes we’re depressed but not drastically Livin’ at the corner of dude and catastrophe
Where I’m livin’, it’s hard to say Wasting my time at the corner of dude and catastrophe Where I’m livin’, it’s hard to say But I feel fine at the corner of dude and catastrophe I’ll just wait, waving goodbye until the next time I’ll just wait, waving goodbye until the next time
See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight Heads turning as the lights flashing out it’s so bright Then walk right out to the fourline track There’s a camera rolling on her back, on her back And I sense the rhythm humming in a frenzy all the way down her spine
Girls on film, girls on film, girls on film, girls on film
Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she’s falling In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies The diving man’s coming up for air cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair And she wonders how she ever got here as she goes under again
Girls on film (two minutes later), girls on film Girls on film (got your picture), girls on film
Wider baby smiling you just made a million Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire Take one last glimpse into the night I’m touching close I’m holding bright, holding tight Give me shudders in a whisper take me up till I’m shooting a star
Girls on film (she’s more than a lady), girls on film Girls on film (two minutes later), girls on film Girls on film (see you together), girls on film Girls on film (see you later), girls on film Girls on film (what ya doing), girls on film
Moving on the floor now babe you’re a bird of paradise Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it’s very nice With a step to your left and a flick to the right you catch that mirror way out west You know you’re something special and you look like you’re the best
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand Just like that river twisting through a dusty land And when she shines she really shows you all she can Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
I’ve seen you on the beach and I’ve seen you on TV Two of a billion stars it means so much to me Like a birthday or a pretty view But then I’m sure that you know it’s just for you
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand Just like that river twisting through a dusty land And when she shines she really shows you all she can Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Hey now woo look at that did she nearly run you down At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive You make me feel alive, alive alive I’ll take my chance cause luck is on my side or something I know what you’re thinking I tell you something I know what you’re thinking
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand Just like that river twists across a dusty land And when she shines she really shows you all she can Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grand Her name is Rio she don’t need to understand And I might find her if I’m looking like I can Oh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
