johnny made a molotov co*ktail
from a boone's farm bottle an aerosmith t-shirt and some gas
from his daddy's car
and he tossed it like a hand grenade
into a salvation army box
just to watch it burning
and he showed up where we were hiding that night
hiding from the _____ ______
he was laughing he was crying, shaking his head
he took a hit off vic's bottle said
i wish i was dead
he screamed, jesus get me out of this town.
he said, i gotta get out of this town.
julie was her daddy's perfect little girl
she got tired of that being her place in the world
so she went out, looking for a way to change.
and she wound up on the wrong side of town
met a man with a greasy frown
he said i'll give you a dime for a dance.
then she showed up where we were hiding that night
and her brand new dress was torn.
there were tears in her eyes, little bruises on her thighs
she grabbed johnny's cigarette and she cried
jesus get me out of this town
