Lyrics

0:10Johnny was a young boy,
0:11He liked playing at the park
0:14And Johnny said,
0:15"Oh, dad, can you take me now?"
0:20Johnny was young, never hurt no one,
0:22Too early for that
0:25He was at the park,
0:26He met a boy named Jimmy
0:28He's a cutie and he chose him, oh
0:31Take my heart, take my soul
0:34Share my crayons, share my goals
0:37His daddy walked by with a sigh
0:39Said, "Johnny, sit by my side
0:41I'm gonna give you the best advice
0:42You've ever heard in your life
0:45See that boy named Jimmy, yeah, he's a cutie
0:48But no, no, Johnny, no, no, no, ah, ah, oh"
0:51Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
0:54Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
0:57You'll get picked on by another
1:00Better go and run for cover, yeah
1:02Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
1:04Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
1:08You'll get picked on by another
1:10Better go and run for cover
1:15Johnny started high school at the front of the bus
1:19Some boys yelled, "Oh man, come sit with us"
1:25Johnny found a seat with a boy
1:27Named Pete and felt it again
1:30As he was trying to play pretend,
1:31The feelings came rushing in
1:34And he thought
1:35Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
1:38Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
1:42You'll get picked on by another
1:44Better go and run for cover, yeah
1:46Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
1:48Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
1:52You'll get picked on by another
1:55Better go and run for cover
1:56And I don't wanna to talk about the trap,
1:58I've dreamed big
1:59Real big since I've been on daddy's lap
2:01Got my dreams by my side
2:02Keep them in my pocket so that
2:04When I get the chance
2:04I can rip it out and rock it
2:06It's like my golden ticket,
2:07It's the reason that I'm here
2:08Everybody has a dream,
2:09they're frozen by fear
2:11We won't dance in the rain,
2:12We go and run for cover
2:14All that is to blame is getting
2:15Picked on by another
2:16So we go and find someone
2:17That will love and support us
2:19Says they adore us, maybe fought for us
2:21Then, we forget about ambitions
2:23And decisions were changed
2:24I think that I was only seven when, oh
2:27Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
2:30Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
2:33You'll get picked on by another
2:36Better go and run for cover, yeah
2:38Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now
2:40Johnny run away, run away, now, Johnny now
2:44You'll get picked on by another
2:46Better go and run for cover
2:48Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
2:52Getting picked on by another
2:54Better go and run for cover
2:57Nah, no, nah, no
2:58Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
3:02Getting picked on by another
3:05Better go and run for cover
3:07Nah, no, nah, no
