Lyric discussion by Peter-Art 

Cover art for John E. Smoke lyrics by Butthole Surfers

A song about a country western boy, i think some farmer camper having lived to long with his mother, turned into psychopat, and ended up as an inmate. Some parody on television interviews, who has Johney ?.. Johney was a ... Parody on western country music as well, its not a feel good song but its a turned bad song, the kid became evil. He became the cancer of his own. Its not a clear view its full of smoke and an intentionally vague life.
