Johnny doesn't know Johnny doesn't know Johnny doesn't know how much I care I stay late after school I feel like such a fool But Johnny doesn't even know I'm there Wandering the halls Imagining he'll call But Johnny doesn't even know my name Johnny doesn't know Johnny doesn't know Johnny doesn't know how much I care I wish the boy could see How much he means to me But Johnny doesn't know Johnny doesn't know Yeah Johnny's so bad Why can't johnny be good C'mon and take my hand Hold me tight, boy you know I'll treat you right Johnny doesn't know Johnny doesn't know Johnny doesn't know how much I care One look in my eyes Then he'd realize But Johnny doesn't know Johnny doesn't know

So Fine 02:46
You got me hypnotized Watchin the way you move I'm all shook up caught up in the groove butterflies in my tummy stars all in my head your a hot potato burning up in my hands You're the only one No one else will do I knew it when I first laid eyes on you Cause baby You're so fine Yeah baby Gonna make you mine If looks could kill Honey, I'd be DOA You got my tongue twisted I can't find the words to say My heart is poundin' My knees are knockin too My tempatures risin' All because of you You're the only one No one else compares Whenever your around I can't help but stare Cause baby You're so fine Yeah baby I'm gonna make you mine

I've been waiting so long to hold you in my arms Night after night Night after night I'm dreaming of you I've been waiting patiently for you to wake up and see Night after night Night after night I'm dreaming of you And baby I swear it's the truth All I can see is you But your slippin away Slippin away Night after night Night after night I'm dreaming of you

Lonely Boy 02:36
Thrown by the wayside Like some piece of trash My heart was shattered baby Like it was made of glass Now there you go Walking down the street Leaving me stranded On this dead end beat Just another lonely boy Castles made of sand Crumble in the sea You let it wash away You got me on my knees Now here I am All alone You keep me hanging On the telephone Just another lonely boy Then it should come as no surprise When you see them teardrops in my eyes Cause you know I ain't tellin lies, anymore I'm just another lonely boy

Radio 03:46
You never stay You always go You're playing me Like a radio Driving down An empty street Stuck inside An empty beat You never stay You always go You're playing me You know I know A blue moon Hangs in the sky I don't know Why I even try You can tear it apart Go ahead n' break my heart We used to be A happy song We'd laugh and dance And sing along With the radio Playing loud I'd make you laugh I'd make you proud You never stay You always go You're playing me You know I know That the pain Will go away But the emptiness Is here to stay You can tear it apart Go ahead and break my heart 'Till it's just a nother static station Just a nother static station

Shooby doo wop Oh baby Every time I look at you I see them big brown eyes And I know you feel it too So baby Make a wish on that shooting star above And kiss me Tell me I'm the one you truly love Shooby doo wop Moonlight sifts softly through the pines I smile cause now I know your mine Shooby doo wop When stars appear And shadows fall You can hear old cupid callin' out Shooby doo wop

I see Lucy playing with diamonds in the sky I hear strange voices in my head, and I don't know why Oh no Whatcha gonna do? Don't you know they're coming after you? They tell me that I lost my mind Somewhere in the Velvet Sky Slings and arrows, oh what a terrible fright To go dancing with the devil 'neath the pale moonlight Oh no Whatcha gonna do? Don't you know he's coming back for you? They tell me that I lost my mind Somewhere in the Velvet Sky I hear the hangman coming, so I'll say goodbye Said mamma don't you worry, don't you cry You see this noose it ain't so tight They think they got me, but it's alright They'll never find me when I hide Somewhere in the Velvet Sky
