Mr John Lyrics

I can't fall asleep tonight

Man, I feel strange

Something's about to explode

My body's screaming out loud

I had a bad day

I fought with mom

She lectured me

And I listened

There's a man in the story

Let's call him Mr. John

He holds authority

Mr. John has a wife

She's always away

He doesn't call her much

And likes it this way

I want the world to love me

I try so hard

This can't be right

My phone rings late at night

I feel like shit

And don't know why

I get nightmares when I daydream

He knows I get self-conscious

Tries to make me feel

Some type of way

And I get scared by the thought of saying no

Mr. John got mad today

He expected a reward

Didn't slam the brakes to stop

I almost got away

I have a secret

I hold on to

It's too ugly to share

The story of Mr John

Ain't over yet

But I won't tell you more about it
