about
The legend of a legendary eight-fingered guitar legend.
lyrics
Countdown - 10 - 1
Johnny lost two fingers in an after show dust up
wanted knuckle tats of "love" & "hate" but ended up with “Fuck Up”
He loved to watch the chickies shake their titties in the front row
As the drummer pounds us forward at the rock & roll show
Can’t you feel the simmer
that bottom bump biology
that rockabilly back beat
is part of our pathology
Barkeep booty babe
a master of mixology
All hail Johnny Rocket
& the new mythology
The air is getting thinner , can’t you feel the heat
an underlying tremor a musky kind of sweet
Did you see the glimmer? I thought I caught a peek
a flutter or a shimmer - too mesmerized to speak
Can’t you feel the simmer
that bottom bump biology
that rockabilly back beat
is part of our pathology
Barkeep booty babe
a master of mixology
All hail Johnny Rocket
& the new mythology
Solo
Some say Johnny died stealing petrol for the band van
Some say that he was sleeping when his wife bashed his head in
8 fingered Johnny & his hollow bodied rocket show
his legend’s getting fuzzy but that’s the way that legends go
Can’t you feel the simmer
that bottom bump biology
that rockabilly back beat
is part of our pathology
Barkeep booty babe
a master of mixology
All hail Johnny Rocket
& the new mythology
Johnny lost two fingers in an after show dust up
wanted knuckle tats of "love" & "hate" but ended up with “Fuck Up”
He loved to watch the chickies shake their titties in the front row
