	作词 : Elfman
	Johnny was bad, even as a child everybody could tell
	Everyone said if you don't get straight
	You'll surely go to hell
	But Johnny didn't care
	He was an outlaw by the time that he was
	Ten years old
	He didn't wanna do what he was told
	Just a prankster, juvenile gangster
	His teachers didn't understand
	They kicked him out of school
	At a tender early age
	Just because he didn't want to learn things (Had other interests)
	He liked to burn things
	The lady down the block
	She had a radio that
	Johnny wanted oh so bad
	So he took it the first chance he had
	Then he shot her in the leg
	And this is what she said
	Only a lad
	You really can't blame him
	Only a lad
	Society made him
	Only a lad
	He's our responsibility
	Only a lad
	He really couldn't help it
	Only a lad
	He didn't want to do it
	Only a lad
	He's underprivileged and abused
	Perhaps a little bit confused
	His parents gave up they couldn't influence his attitude
	Nobody could help
	The little man had no gratitude
	And when he stole the car
	Nobody dreamed that he would
	Try to take it so far
	He didn't mean to hit the poor man
	Who had to go and die
	It made the judge cry
	Only a lad
	He really couldn't help it
	Only a lad
	He didn't want to do it
	Only a lad
	He's underprivileged and abused
	Perhaps a little bit confused
	It's not his fault that he can't behave
	Society made him go astray
	Perhaps if we're nice he'll go away
	Perhaps he'll go away
	He'll go away (Repeat chorus)
	Hey there
	Johnny you really don't fool me
	You get away with murder
	And you think it's funny
	You don't give a damn if we live or if we die
	Hey there
	Johnny boy
	I hope you fry!
