===Johnny Clash 7===
Crashed in the coconut  
<poem>Crushed in the coconut  
Smile on his face
Smile on his face
Down at the Ale House
Down at the Ale House
Beatin' drums and strummin' bass
Beatin' drums and strummin' bass
Quick with the bear hug
Quick with a bear hug
No shirt upon his chest
No shirt upon his chest
Now I hear the last explosion sounding from the Pacific Ocean
Now I hear the last explosion
Sounding from the Pacific Ocean


Johnny Clash drove his black c250 when he went out looking for a fight
Johnny Clash drove his black C250
When he went out looking for a fight
Now the cops search the wreck for some alcohol
Now the cops search the wreck for some alcohol
And they cordoned off the site
And they cordoned off the site
Tortured by demons he could not escape
Tortured by demons he could not escape
Just don't react if you'd like to stay safe
Just don't react if you'd like to stay safe
Johnny Clash drove his black c250 when he went out looking for a fight
Johnny Clash drove his black C250
When he went out looking for a fight


I met him at Walgreens wearing yoga pants
I met him at Walgreens, wearing yoga pants
Asked him if was ADD said he had Tourette's
I asked if he was ADD, he said he had Tourette's
His type couldn't have existed in the 20th century
His type couldn't have existed in the 20th century
He figured out how to save the world, yes make all your mistakes on purpose
He figured out how to save the world, yes
Make all your mistakes on purpose

Johnny Clash drove his black C250

And they cordoned off the site

Tortured by demons he could not escape
Tortured by demons he could not escape
Just don't react if you'd like to stay safe
Just don't react if you'd like to stay safe

Johnny Clash drove his black C250
When he went out looking for a fight


It meant so much to him that we were on his side
It meant so much to him we were on his side
But Johnny got kicked around the block a couple times
But Johnny Clash got kicked around the block a couple times
If you think people give a damn you were wrong
If you think people give a damn, you were wrong
Johnny
Johnny, so long
So long

Just don't react if you'd like to stay safe

===Johnny Clash 6 ("toothpick bridge")===
<poem>[...]
Some guys go for girls that could slip between the cracks
They drink Tab and starve themselves
'Til they have they hardly have an ass
I got me a healthy girl with big, juicy lips
She's no toothpick
