Johnny’s not a rebel,
He’s a sensitive guy,
He’d probably have a girl,
But he’s much too shy,
But he’s got a good job,
And he shows up on time,
He does what they want,
And he never asks why.
And it grows,
It grows,
The wickedness grows,
It’s takes you by the hand,
And shakes you by the throat,
It grows,
It grows,
The wickedness grows,
And nobody knows,
When it’s gonna start,
Or where it’s gonna go.
Johnny’s had enough,
Of the same old thing,
It’s like he’s stuck inside a movie,
That he’s already seen,
So Johnny’s got a plan,
And it’s a hell of a sight,
He might be going down in flames,
But he’s loving the ride.
Now Johnny’s had enough,
And it ain’t no joke,
It’s like he was holding back the water,
But the dam just broke,
He said we’re cattle for the slaughter,
We’re just used to the yoke,
We used to be fire,
But now we’re just smoke!
