Lost Johnny (Hawkwind cover)

You only get a single chance The rules are very plain, The truth is well concealed inside The details of the game, You can hear it coming, You can see it from afar, It´s pale and it glimmers Like a faded movie star And out there in the castle, They´re trying to make us scream, By sticking thumb tacks in her flash And dancing in her dream, Can you find the Valium, Can you bring them soon, Lost Johnny´s out there, Baying at the moon The time has come for you to choose, You´d better get it right, Berlin girls with sharp white teeth Are waiting in the night, But you want to really get some, It surely can´t be hard, There´s always trouble lurking When you leave your own backyard Underneath the city, The alligators sing, Of how the fool he cannot dance, When someone cuts the strings, Can you find the morphine, Try to be so brief, Lost Johnny´s out there, Looking for relief That laddie looks so evil, And you know he really tries, Every time he makes a play, The final number dies, And Sally buys her underwear, From a store where no-one goes, She makes it big in photographs, On the strength of what she shows, And here inside the waiting room, The radio still screams, And we´re shooting tuinol, To murder all your dreams, Can you find your credit card, For god´s sake make it quick, Lost Johnny´s out there, Trying to turn a trick
