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
|
Johnny says he's willing to learn
|
When he decides he's a fool
|
Johnny says he'll live anywhere
|
When he earns time to 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 is being discovered
|
Scared that he'll be caught
|
Without a second thought
|
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
|
Johnny's always running around
|
Running around
