Johnny and Mary

Johnny's always running around trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm that he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Knows he tires easily
Johnny thinks the world would be right if it could buy truth from him
Mary says he changes his mind more than a woman
But she made her bed
Even when the chance was slim

Running around

Running around

Johnny says he's willing to learn when he decides he's a fool
Johnny says he'd live anywhere when he earns the time
Mary combs her hair
Says she should be used to it
Mary always hedges her bets
She never knows what to think
She says that he still acts like he's being discovered
Scared that he'll be caught
Without a second thought

Running around

Running around

Running around

Running around

Johnny feels he's wasting his breath trying to talk sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a real sense of proportion
So she combs her hair
Knows he tires easily
Johnny's always running around trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm that he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Says she should be used to it

Running around

Running around

Johnny's always running around
Running around

Running around
