Lost Child |
| Picked up by the police, only seventeen |
| What did he do, what did he say? |
| His father left him as a little boy |
| His mother turned tricks just to buy his toys |
| Seventy-two hour evaluation |
| Immediate psychiatric help |
| But Johnny wasn’t crazy |
| He was just an angry boy |
| Hey! |
| Years later nothing much has changed |
| Liquor, drugs, and gangs have made him a man |
| Living in the streets in a world of his own |
| He stops and watches his heart turn to stone |
| He’s an important person now |
| He’s running with a wayward crowd |
| But Johnny wasn’t crazy |
| He was just a lonely boy |
| Hey! |
| The pain got too great, an eventual suicide |
| Fear and anger were trapped deep inside |
| If only Johnny could have opened up his heart |
| Then me and Johnny would’ve never had to part |
| He’s tired of running the vicious circle |
| He loaded and cocked his .45 |
| But Johnny wasn’t crazy |
| He was just a frightened boy |
| Oh, how many Johnnys must there be? |
| Oh, Johnny, how I wish you were here |
| Oh, how many Johnnys must there be? |
| Oh, Johnny, how I wish you were here |
| Oh, Johnny, how I wish |
| Oh, how I wish you were here |
