letra de the tale of johnny two hands' band - jen and the erics

johnny two hands as they used to say
played a mean guitar and a – a so-so bass
but for two things was he truly known
a raspy voice and an ego overgrown
on his farewell tour our tale begins
going ninety on a bus against the wind
with his band they rode to their last show
what fate that lay in wait they did not know

still at speed and almost halfway there
the bassist told them all i – i need some air
pulled the window down and leant outside
a bump and gust of wind took him for a ride
unaware they were onе member short
they stoppеd for dinner at a questionable court
the drummer found himself unable to walk
liquid betrayal by a devious piece of pork

oh johnny can you keep it up?
looks like you’re out of luck
your band’s on fire and it’s not a metaphor
oh johnny can you keep it up?
looks like you’re out of luck
any longer and they’ll need scr-ping off the floor
on stage the concert finally began
even the drums drowned out by hordes of screaming fans
one slipped the bouncers and climbed up on stage
on one knee to the girl on the keys their heart they gave
but the guitarist stole the show that night
playing with such a speed he simply set alight
those wooden floorboards only made things worse
johnny insisted they could finish the verse

twenty years gone
johnny sits at home
thinking back to that place
wait, where was the bass?
