The Fratellis - Johnny Come Last lyrics
[The Fratellis - Johnny Come Last lyrics]
Well ask me that question, oh, ask me again
Well you swore that you knew me
You didn't say when
Happiness, happiness comes in a jar
You're a brave little cunt
But you took it too far
And all of the tantrums and each of the lies
They took ages to think up
That's no big surprise
And last but not least, you're a talented boy
But, you stole all the answers
You killed all the joy
Tell me you mean it
And I'll tell you you don't
You say that you'll try
But I know that you won't
Well there's one God-knows where
And there's one in Japan
Was a hundred degrees
You got shit-scared and ran
Well, Johnny go easy, Johnny go fast
Johnny come lately, and Johnny come last
Housewives are heroes, and everyone's bent
Well if this was a joke
Well it's some accident
Well I loved you before but I don't anymore
You're just burned out and vicious and dumb
And I don't like the way that
You mean what you say
And I don't like what you've become
Well give me a month
And I'll write you a line
Or two, maybe three
Though it might take some time
I'll write them for drunks
And I'll sing them for cash
Well, you know that old saying
About gone in a flash?
They wrote that for me
And it fit's me so well
It's been my fucking pleasure
I bid you farewell
Green is the colour but don't it fade fast?
Remember me fondly, Johnny come last
Well I loved you before, but I don't anymore
You're just burned out and vicious and dumb
And I don't like the way that
You mean what you say
And I don't like what you've become
Well you swore that you knew me
You didn't say when
Happiness, happiness comes in a jar
You're a brave little cunt
But you took it too far
And all of the tantrums and each of the lies
They took ages to think up
That's no big surprise
And last but not least, you're a talented boy
But, you stole all the answers
You killed all the joy
Tell me you mean it
And I'll tell you you don't
You say that you'll try
But I know that you won't
Well there's one God-knows where
And there's one in Japan
Was a hundred degrees
You got shit-scared and ran
Well, Johnny go easy, Johnny go fast
Johnny come lately, and Johnny come last
Housewives are heroes, and everyone's bent
Well if this was a joke
Well it's some accident
Well I loved you before but I don't anymore
You're just burned out and vicious and dumb
And I don't like the way that
You mean what you say
And I don't like what you've become
Well give me a month
And I'll write you a line
Or two, maybe three
Though it might take some time
I'll write them for drunks
And I'll sing them for cash
Well, you know that old saying
About gone in a flash?
They wrote that for me
And it fit's me so well
It's been my fucking pleasure

Green is the colour but don't it fade fast?
Remember me fondly, Johnny come last
Well I loved you before, but I don't anymore
You're just burned out and vicious and dumb
And I don't like the way that
You mean what you say
And I don't like what you've become
