Sonia Dada - Screaming John lyrics

rate me

Blue blue Mary

Blue blue Mary

and Screaming John

Screaming John had a broken heart

He was outside crying all alone

In the parking lot

'Cause his brother had left

Half alone and half together

He'd sit up late at night

And have to wonder had he lived or died

'Cause he was thinkin'

But he didn't know why

He'd go uder the screaming sky

Lookin' at the water reflecting the city lights

And he'd howl at the crescent moon

But he didn't know why

And he was all alone

He was all alone

Blue blue Mary

Blue blue Mary

and Screaming John

The last to leave when the war was through

Stabbing at imaginary enemies

Tryin' to run'em all through

And when the moon stabbed down

White light in streams

Johnny panic fell asleep and had to wrestle

With the dragons in his dreams

Like a knight from round table

He was Screaming John and he was all alone

And he was lookin' for home

All alone in the middle of the night

he went crazy by the candlelight

Before his final madness came

he had a vision of God on an elevated train

grieving for the anguish of his lonely lonely boy

And Mary's teardrops fell like rain

And the fields were ripe to bloom again

And the Sisters of Babylon dressed in red were singing for his soul

Come on Johnny let me sing it to you

Come on Johnny let me sing it to you

Blue blue Mary

Blue blue Mary

and Screaming John
