A Girl Called Johnny
I remember Johnny - hey! Johnny come lately I remember her shoes like a ballerina A girl called Johnny who Changed her name when she Discovered her choice was to Change or to be changed I remember a girl called Johnny Black as hell and white as a ghost Don't talk about life or death She said "I've had enough of both" A girl called Johnny who was not scared They'd have torn her to pieces but Who would dare? I remember a girl called Johnny The train came to town, boy she got on it Without looking back, there was barely a word If she said goodbye, well I never heard But the noise goes on The noise, the jazz And the truth is in somebody else's hands And the house that a girl called johnny built Is now just so much ashes and sand Aus Songtexte Mania
