Scott Abrams - Johnny Was A Dick To Joey Lyrics

Putting up with me
Because I make you money now
Tall and gangly trees
So cool and so funny now
The metaphor is there
If you're smart enough to pick it out

Can't lead them anywhere
So you keep em in the pocket now
Don't wanna show em love
But the locket turns a profit now
The image isn't real
But I know you know the money is

Hey Ho
Did you ever really wanna go?
Hey Ho
You're looking so miserable

So contemptuous
And still you want the love

The drugs they've been helping me
But only just a little
I'm sickly
And I'm giving and I'm giving and I'm giving
The drugs they've been helping me
But only just a little
Just a little bit

Praying on your fears
They've turned you so Manchurian
Opinions that you hold
Don't even really come from you
The image isn't real
I know you know the money is

Bend em to your will
Learning how to keep him down
Bullies 101
Convince him that he needs you now
Getting what you want
But do you really want it now?

So contemptuous
And still you want the love

The drugs they've been helping
But only just a little
I'm sickly
And I'm giving and I'm giving and I'm giving
The drugs they've been helping me
But only just a little

So contemptuous
And still you want the love
Uncool tempestuous
And still you want the love

The drugs they've been helping me
But only just a little
I'm sickly
And I'm giving and I'm giving and I'm giving
Yeah the drugs they've been helping me
But only just a little
Just a little bit
