oingo boingo – only a lad (demo ep version) كلمات اغاني
[verse 1]
johnny was bad, even as a child
everybody could tell
everyone said, “if you don’t get straight, you’ll surely go to h-ll”
but johnny didn’t care
he was an outlaw by the time that he was ten years old
he didn’t wanna do what he was told
just a prankster, a juvenile gangster
his teachers didn’t understand
they kicked him out of school
at a tender early age
just because he didn’t want to learn things
had other interests
he liked to burn things
the lady down the block
she had a radio that johnny wanted, oh, so bad
so he took it the first chance he had
and then he shot her in the leg
but this is what she said:
[chorus]
he’s only a lad
you really can’t blame him
only a lad
society made him
only a lad
he’s our responsibility
oh, oh, oh oh oh
only a lad
he really couldn’t help it
only a lad
he didn’t want to do it
only a lad
he’s underprivileged and abused
perhaps a little bit confused
oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh
whoa whoa whoa
oh, whoa whoa whoa
[verse 2]
his parents gave up
they couldn’t influence his att-tude
n-body could help
the little man had no grat-tude
and when he stole the car
n-body dreamed that he would
try to take it so far
he didn’t mean to hit the poor man
who had to go and die
it made the judge cry
[chorus]
only a lad
you really can’t blame him
only a lad
society made him
only a lad
he’s our responsibility
oh, oh, oh oh oh
only a lad
he really couldn’t help it
only a lad
he didn’t want to do it
only a lad
he’s underprivileged and abused
perhaps a little bit confused
oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh
[bridge]
it’s not his fault that he can’t behave
society’s made him go astray
perhaps if we’re nice, he’ll go away
perhaps he’ll go away
he’ll go away
[chorus]
only a lad
you really can’t blame him
only a lad
society made him
only a lad
he’s our responsibility
[outro]
hey there, johnny, you really don’t fool me
you get away with murder
and you think it’s funny
you don’t give a d-mn if we live or if we die
oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh
hey there, johnny boy
i hope you fry!
