Craig David - Johnny

It's another day at
school and he's just
walking out the door
Got his nap sack on
his back and his feet
dragging on the floor
Always late but when he's
questioned he can't
think of what to say
Hows the bruises from the
teacher he's hoping
that they go away
Even though his mom and dad
they both got
problems of their own
Called a not get twenty
to but he'd still
rather be at home
Crys himself to sleep and
prays when he somethings
might have changed
But everythings still
the same
But didn't you say
You always said
that I should speak up Mmm
But it seems like all the
things you said to me
before mean nothing at all
Because
I keep telling you that
Johnny's hitting me
That's why I'm late
for school
but you never listen
Instead you always seen to
end up blaming me for
things I didn't do
For I just wanna
I didn't even want to
tell you anything
incase it made things worse
Just so you know
Every time I say that
Johnny's hitting me
Hey Mom and Dad it hurts

Everyday keeps on repeating
like the record on replay
Slowly getting off the
bus with Johnny
waiting at the gates
Like a friend smiling and
waiveing and my
called him out his name
Put his arm around
his neck whats up now
gimme all your change
Too afraid to make a scene
or plead with
him to let him go
He just takes whatevers
coming feels the
pain with every blow
Trys in vain to make himself
as soon as he gets home
But everythings
still the same
But didn't you say
You always said
that I should speak up Mmm
But it seems like all the
things you said to me
before mean nothing at all
Because
I keep telling you that
Johnny's hitting me
That's why I'm late
for school
but you never listen
Instead you always seen to
end up blaming me for
things I didn't do
For I just wanna
I didn't even want to
tell you anything
incase it made things worse
Just so you know
Every time I say that
Johnny's hitting me
Hey Mom and Dad it hurts
You always said
that I should speak up Mmm
And to never be
afraid to come and tell you
If I needed to talk
If I needed to talk
Well I don't know the
meaning of love Mmm
Cause it seems like all the
things you said to me
before mean nothing at all
Because
I keep telling you that
Johnny's hitting me
That's why I'm late
for school
but you never listen
Instead you always seen to
end up blaming me for
things I didn't do
For I just wanna
I didn't even want to
tell you anything
incase it made things worse
Just so you know
Every time I say that
Johnny's hitting me
Hey Mom and Dad it hurts
I keep telling you that
