Johnny

Johnny wanted his life to go far He went to town and bought a guitar
 He had a friend and he showed him a chord It was fun, but he started getting bored
 He developed a need for fame and greed said a rock band is what I need
 He bought a whammy bar and sold his soul Him and his friends played corporate rock-n-roll
 They played loud, you could hear it Johnny smelled just like teen spirit
 Not too long playin in clubs meeting lots of girls giving him lovin
 Then finally his big break came His career lead to fortune and fame
 It's Johnny and the Allstar Band
