Johnny |
| It’s another day at school and he’s just walking out the door |
| Got his ruck sack on his back and his feet dragging on the floor |
| Always late, but when he’s questioned he can’t think of what to say |
| Hides the bruises from the teachers hoping that they go away |
| Even though his mom and dad they both got problems of their own |
| Caught in a catch 22 but he’d still rather be at home |
| Crys himself to sleep and prays when he wakes up things might have changed |
| But everythings still the same |
| (But didn’t you say) You always said that I should speak up, Mmm… |
| But it seems like all the things you said to me before mean 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 incase |
| It made things worse (Just so you know) |
| Every time 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 smiling and waiveing and called him out his name |
| Put his arm around his neck whats up now gimme all your change |
| Too afraid to make a scene or plead with him to let him go |
| He just takes whatevers coming, feels the pain with every blow |
| Trys in vain to make himself be heard as soon as he gets home |
| But everythings still the same… |
| (But didn’t you say) You always said that I should speak up, Mmm |
| But it seems like all the things you said to me before mean 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 incase |
| It made things worse (Just so you know) |
| Every time I say that Johnny’s hitting me |
| Hey Mom and Dad it hurts |
| You always said that I should speak up, Mmm |
| 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, Mmm |
| Cause it seems like all the things you said |
| To me before mean nothing at all |
| (Mean 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 incase |
| It made things worse (Just so you know) |
| Every time I say that Johnny’s hitting me |
| Hey Mom 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 incase |
| It made things worse (Just so you know) |
| Every time I say that Johnny’s hitting me |
| Hey Mom 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 incase |
| It made things worse (Just so you know) |
| Every time I say that Johnny’s hitting me |
| Hey Mom and Dad it hurts |
