lyrics

a lack of care
a lack of instruction
it's the same side
depends on who's coining
I've cast my lie
been down and out
and over the
cursed whys
I think a thought car
racing on down
the jungle trails
in old Phuket
motorcycles with son and dad

Nows a time ticking free
burnt away through family
boy hates him now in Cantonese
the churches forget him in times of need
a huddle of friends
and a cling to a dream
of fish and chips
and English tea
he said i'll see you when
I am free

there's no more reason
now to go see
the house
where the 25th track
and a tambourine
played for a friend from spring

It was johnny the dream
it was johnny the dream
