My Friend John |
| Well the room was pink and the signs were serious |
| Paperback dolls being slammed delirious |
| Feeling like a joke in the bar underneath |
| And it was Saturday night in the year of the good thief |
| Well I tumbled up the stairs the wrong way 'round |
| I hit my head on the ceiling when my feet hit the ground |
| And then the big dumb blonde in the gold fish bowl |
| Cried Ella’s in the band but she’s got no soul! |
| My friend John was a serious one |
| Buttoned up the back and a job half done |
| Lazy old boy when the good girls turn |
| His teeth get itchy and his rubber soles burn |
| When will he ever learn? |
| Well the night was spent and my money was young |
| And then I had to get home before my neck was wrung |
| And everybody danced in the same old way |
| And if I’m feeling old and desperate I’ll be back some day |
| My friend John was a serious one |
| Buttoned up the back and a job half done |
| Lazy old boy when the good girls turn |
| His teeth get itchy and his rubber soles burn |
| When will he ever learn? |
