Mika - Holy Johnny lyrics

My mate Johnny's a looker His habit is a one night stand he would walk the streets in the usual way Oh, what a pretty man My mate Johnny was a lover He fell for the girl next door she said Johnny I can't be with you You're pretty but you're also a bore Finding love was not so easy Cause people thought that he was too peculiar So what was left for poor old Johnny At least he found out that Jesus loves ya Holy Well he once was a wh*re Now hes a priest at 24 'Cause he's holy And he wanted the most Now he's left with Holy Ghost I prayed for johnny but now johnny prays for me I prayed for johnny but now johnny prays for me My mate Johnny's a preacher He's holy as they come He says follow the lord and the Lord'll be good And then he started callin me son For God was good to poor old Johnny He hid his life behind the walls of religion What was left was not so funny Cause I lost my friend to his new found position
