recordo muitas vezes esta canção de mike scott, a primeira dos waterboys que ouvi.
e está aqui porque uma miúda chamada johnny festeja hoje mais um aniversário.



I remember Johnny - hey! 
Johnny come lately 
I remember her shoes like a ballerina 
A girl called Johnny who 
changed her name when she 
discovered her choice was to 
change or to be changed 

I remember a girl called Johnny 
black as hell and white as a ghost 
"Don't talk about life or death" 
she said "I've had enough of both" 
A girl called Johnny who was not scared 
they'd have torn her to pieces but 
who would dare? 

I remember a girl called Johnny 
the train came to town, boy she got on it 
with no looking back, with not a word 
If she said goodbye, well I never heard 
but the noise goes on 
the noise, the jazz 
and the truth is in somebody else's hands 
and the house that a girl called johnny built 
is now just so much ashes and sand
