Johnny was a junkie but his mommy didnt know

couldnt see the track marks from his wrists to his elbows

she was busy drinking martinis

cuz life in the suburbs aint always that easy

julie was perfect yea queen of the prom

most likely to suceed by the age of 21

something funny happened to her along the way

first she took a hit then she ran away

Johnny was found with a needle in his arm

mommy couldnt figure out what was wrong

tears roll from her tranquilized eyes

another pill will kill the pain inside



Julie was hangin' from the 12th street bridge

her suicide note clenched in her fist

it said sorry things turned out this way

maybe tomorrow will be a better day
