Uncle Jonny - Album Version

Lyricist: Brandon Flowers, Dave Keuning, Mark Stoermer     Composer:

When everybody else refrained
My uncle Johnny did cocaine
He's convinced himself right in his brain
That it helps to take away the pain
Hey, Jonny
Hey what you say Jonny


I wanna go out tonight
Come a little closer to the city lights
Levitation ain't your only friend
Levitation coming back again


You feel a burning in your body's core
It's a yearning that you can't ignore
Now I wanna go out tonight
So trust the superman and hold on tight
He's convinced himself right in his brain
That it helps to take away the pain
Hey, Jonny
Hey what you say Jonny


My appetite ain't got no heart
I said my appetite ain't got no heart
Shocking people when you feel that pull
Shock 'em, drop 'em when you know its full


I feel a burning in your body's core
It's a yearning that you can't ignore
I gotta go out tonight
Hey Jonny I got faith in you man
I mean it, it's gonna be all right
He's convinced himself right in his brain
That it helps to take away the pain
Hey, Jonny
Hey what you say Jonny


Tell us what's going on
Feel's like everything's wrong
Hey what you say Jonny
If the future is real
Johnny, you've got to heal
Hey what you say Jonny


When everybody else refrained
My uncle Jonny did cocaine
