Happy Birthday, Johnny |
Remember one Christmas I gave you Jim Carroll |
Intended it as a cautionary tale |
You said you saw yourself inside there |
Dog-eared it like a how-to manual |
Remember one summer wealked in Times Square |
I showed you the zombies with hundred-inch stares |
You took a BIC, set your hotel on fire |
We took the blame, took our bags to the train |
Happy Birthday, Johnny |
Wherever you are |
Happy Birthday, Johnny |
Wherever you are |
The last time you called it was on New Years' Eve |
You asked me for dough to get somethin' to eat |
Since we last spoke, you live on the street |
Yeah, I wouldn’t believe all the shit that you seen |
Happy New Year, Johnny |
Is it 23? |
Happy New Year, Johnny |
Are the lights on the trees? |
I said, «Let me think,"and you yelled through your teeth |
Accused me of actin' like all royalty |
Always for show, no true charity |
You saw me on magazines and TV |
But they only knew the real version of me |
Only you know the secrets, the swamp, and the fear |
What happened to blood, our family? |
Annie, how could you do this to me? |
Of course, I blame me |
When you get free, Johnny |
I hope you find peace |
