I Wanna Be Like Johnny C Lyrics

It's not religion though I pray
Every minute of the day
Second to no one

A voice that shock my body
You sing and girls go naughty
I wanna be like you Johnny

Without a thought I'd kill my friends (to be like Johnny)
I wouldn't care If I could stop pretend (to be like Johnny)
Second to no one

My songs are weak and sleazy
I give it a try, but it sounds so cheesy
You make it look so easy!

That attitude, I want it so bad

I'm so pathetic when I try (to look like Johnny)
My mother says I'll never know what it's like
(to be you Johnny)
Second to no one

I want a taste of Johnny
I wanna sing I wanna speed I wanna breathe like you Johhny
I wanna be like Johnny!

About Johnny Cash, right? I'm guessing the line "Without a thought I'd kill my friends (to be like Johnny)" as a reference to the line from Folsom Prison Blues "I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die."

It's about Jarvis Cocker
