Uncle Jonny Lyrics & Video
The Killers See albums and popular songs
When everybody else refrained
My uncle Jonny 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 aint your only friend
Levitation coming back again
You feel a burning in your body core
It's a yearning that you cant ignore
And 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 aint got no heart
I said my appetite aint got no heart
Shocking people when you feel that pull
Shock 'em, drop 'em when you know its full
I feel a burning in my body core
It's a yearning that you cant ignore
Now I gotta go out tonight
[spoken]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
Jonny, you've got to heal
Hey what you say Jonny
When everybody else refrained
My uncle Jonny did cocaine

"When everybody else REFRAINED"
"Cut me a little closer to the city lights"
"Success the superman and hold on tight"The second time it's "I feel a burning in my body core"
And it's spelled "JONNY" everytime!
FIX!!!!
I think it should be "refrained" because "refains" and "did" are two different verb tenses. They should match. It's hard to tell what he's actually singing, though. I like this song.
