The Killers - Sam's Town (2006) - Uncle Johnny lyrics

  • When everybody else refrained
    My uncle Johnny did cocaine
    He's convinced himself right in his brain
    That it helps to take away the pain
    Hey, Johnny
    Hey what you say Johnny

    I wanna go out tonight
    Come a little closer to the city lights
    Levitation aint your only friend
    Levitation coming back again
    Feel a burning in your body's core
    It's a yearning that you cant ignore
    Now I wanna go out tonight

    S-s-superman and hold on tight
    He's convinced himself right in his brain
    That it helps to take away the pain
    Hey, Johnny
    Hey what you say Johnny

    My appetite aint got no heart
    I said my appetite aint got no heart
    Shocking people when you feel that pull
    Shock 'em, drop 'em when you know its full

    I feel a burning in your body's core
    It's a yearning that you cant ignore
    I gotta go out tonight
