Johnny

It's another day at school and he's just walking out the door

Got his nap sack on his back and his feet dragging on the floor

Always late, but when he's questioned he can't think of what to say

How's the bruises from the teacher he's hoping that they go away

Even though his mom and dad they both got problems of their own

Called a ? 22 but he'd still rather be at home

Cries himself to sleep and prays when he wakes up things might have changed

But everything's still the same(But didn't you say) You always said that I should speak up, mm

But it seems like all the things you said to me before mean nothing at all

BecauseI keep telling you that Johnny's hitting me

That's why I'm late for school (but you never listen)

Instead you always seen to end up blaming me for things I didn't do (For what it's worth)

I didn't even want to tell you anything encase it made things worse (Just so you know)

Every time I say that Johnny's hitting me

Hey Mom and Dad it hurtsEveryday keeps on repeating like the record on replay

Slowly getting off the bus with Johnny waiting at the gates

Like a friend smiling and waiving and called him out his name

Put his arm around his neck what's up now gimme all your change

Too afraid to make a scene or plead with him to let him go

He just takes whatevers coming, feels the pain with every blow

Tries in vain to make himself ? as soon as he gets home

But everything's still the same(But didn't you say) You always said that I should speak up, mm

But it seems like all the things you said to me before mean nothing at all

BecauseI keep telling you that Johnny's hitting me

That's why I'm late for school (but you never listen)

Instead you always seen to end up blaming me for things I didn't do (For what it's worth)

I didn't even want to tell you anything encase it made things worse (Just so you know)

Every time I say that Johnny's hitting me

Hey Mom and Dad it hurtsYou always said that I should speak up, mm

And to never be afraid to come and tell you if I needed to talk (If I needed to talk, Yeah)

Well I don't know the meaning of love, mm

Cause it seems like all the things you said to me before mean nothing at all(Mean nothing at all)

BecauseI keep telling you that Johnny's hitting me

That's why I'm late for school (but you never listen)

Instead you always seen to end up blaming me for things I didn't do (For what it's worth)

I didn't even want to tell you anything encase it made things worse (Just so you know)

Every time I say that Johnny's hitting me

Hey Mom and Dad it hurts

Hey Mom and Dad it hurts

Hey Mom and Dad it hurts
