Holy Johnny Lyrics - Mika

My mate Johnny's a looker 

His habit is a one night stand 

He would walk the streets in the usual way 

Oh, what a pretty man 

My mate Johnny was a lover 

He fell for the girl next door 

She said: "Johnny I can't be with you 

You're pretty but you're also a bore" 

Finding love was not so easy 

'Cause people thought that he was too peculiar 

So what was left for poor old Johnny 

At least he found out that Jesus loves ya

Holy, yes, he once was a whore 

Now he's a priest at 24 

'Cause he's holy, when he wanted the most 

Now he's left with Holy Ghost 

Yes, I prayed for Johnny, but now Johnny prays for me 

Yes, I prayed for Johnny, but now Johnny prays for me 

My mate Johnny is a preacher 

As holy as they come 

He says follow the Lord and the Lord'll be good 

And he started calling me son 

The Lord was good to poor old Johnny 

He hid his life behind the walls of religion 

What was left was not so funny 

'Cause I lost my friend to his new-found position 

Now he's holy, yes, he once was a whore 

Now he's a priest at 24 

'Cause he's holy, when he wanted the most 

Now he's left with Holy Ghost 

Yes, I prayed for Johnny, but now Johnny prays for me 

Yes, I prayed for Johnny, but now Johnny prays for me 

I prayed for Johnny, but now Johnny prays for me
