Johnny Wouldn't Die - That Handsome Devil

In his favorite band shirt hangin' from the lamp cord

Would’ve got it done if it wasn’t for his grandma

Stay away from razor blades, what a mess you’ve made today

He wanted to be Kurt Cobain, but Johnny wouldn’t die

But you’re young and you think things last forever

Just give it up, you’ll feel much better

In the garage, engine runnin'

Feeling funny, dreamin' somethin'

Close your eyes, see Death comin'

Johnny wouldn’t die

Sit in the kitchen, head in the oven

Feeling funny, dreamin' somethin'

Guess that even God don’t want him

Johnny wouldn’t die

Life just felt depressin', waiting, self-obsessin'

At the pool at school, he sunk and held his breath in Stay away from razor blades, what a mess you’ve made today

He wanted to be Kurt Cobain, but Johnny wouldn’t die

But you’re young and you think it won’t get better

Nothing lasts forever

In the garage, engine runnin'

Feeling funny, dreamin' somethin'

Close your eyes, see Death comin'

Johnny wouldn’t die

Sit in the kitchen, head in the oven

Feeling funny, dreamin' somethin'

Guess that even God don’t want him

Johnny wouldn’t die

Go Johnny, go;

go, Johnny, go, go Go Johnny, go;

go, Johnny, go Go to that white light;

I’ll see in the next life

Go Johnny, go;

go, Johnny, go, go Go Johnny, go;

go, Johnny, go, go Go to that white light;

I’ll catch you on the flip side

Johnny wasn’t doin' well on the train of Louisville

Nearly overdosed in the back of a commuter rail

Play all day with razor blades, burn out quick and fade away

Say hello to Kurt Cobain, Johnny wouldn’t die

But you’re young and you think things last forever

Just give it up, you’ll feel much better

In the garage, engine runnin'

Feeling funny, dreamin' somethin'

Close your eyes, see Death comin'

Johnny wouldn’t die

Sit in the kitchen, head in the oven

Feeling funny, dreamin' somethin'

Guess that even God don’t want him

Johnny wouldn’t die
