<poem> | ===Johnny Clash 7=== | ||
<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 | Quick with a bear hug | ||
No shirt upon his chest | No shirt upon his chest | ||
Now I hear the last explosion | Now I hear the last explosion | ||
Sounding from the Pacific Ocean | |||
Johnny Clash drove his black | 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 | 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 | ||
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 | He figured out how to save the world, yes | ||
Make all your mistakes on purpose | |||

Johnny Clash drove his black | Johnny Clash drove his black C250 | ||
When he went out looking for a fight | |||
It meant so much to him | 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 | ||
Johnny Clash drove his black | Johnny Clash drove his black C250 | ||

===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 | |||
[...]</poem> | |||
