Johnny B. Goode is dead
I’m sorry but Johnny B. Goode is dead
His body was found in a rose-covered bed
And I hope we can come to terms with the state of the scene
As of today

I want death
To your rock and roll dream
I’ll get what I want
Is Gibson still facing bankruptcy?

They must have seen it coming
A mile away
No way to defend themselves, nothing to say

I’m sorry but Johnny B. Goode is dead
His body was found in a rose-covered bed
But you mustn’t be sad
He lived a long life
And I hope we can come to terms with the state of the scene
As of today
But it’s alright to honour his memory
And it’s alright to be a bit unoriginal (Like the most of us)
But you mustn’t live in a past you never even knew first-hand
And it’s alright
Don’t you know it’s alright?
