Little Johnny Jewel
Let go of them
Strange case of Little Johnny Jewel
Little Johnny Jewel
Oh, he's real cool
He had no decisions
Trying to tell a vision
Some thought that this was sad
And others thought it mad
Scratching the surface
JJ do the floor kiss
Was he on display?
Oh, no, not today
All that guy ever said
"I want my little wing head"
He's half-asleep at night
His head, sensation of flight
Dreaming
He wakes up dreaming
He run down onto the airport
The rush
The rush and the roar
He crouched down behind a fence
A chest full of lights
He let it sink in
He let it sink in
Then
He loses his senses
Little Johnny Jewel
He's real cool
If you see him looking lost
Ain't gotta come on so boss
Know that he's paid
Paid the price
If you see that little guy
Wink your eye
Strange case of Little Johnny Jewel
Little Johnny Jewel
Oh, he's real cool
He had no decisions
Trying to tell a vision
Some thought that this was sad
And others thought it mad
Scratching the surface
JJ do the floor kiss
Was he on display?
Oh, no, not today
All that guy ever said
"I want my little wing head"
He's half-asleep at night
His head, sensation of flight
Dreaming
He wakes up dreaming
He run down onto the airport
The rush
The rush and the roar
He crouched down behind a fence
A chest full of lights
He let it sink in
He let it sink in
Then
He loses his senses
Little Johnny Jewel
He's real cool
If you see him looking lost
Ain't gotta come on so boss
Know that he's paid
Paid the price
If you see that little guy
Wink your eye
