Johnny
Sun-soaked Journeys and Bohemian Vibes: Daniel Wesley's 'Johnny' Unveiled
Lyrics
Johnny 's in the backroom, looking for some matches,
Johnny is in a backroom searching for matches.
Wanna smoke a cigarette, play a little bocce.
Expresses a desire to smoke a cigarette and play bocce.
Sun is out shinning, out on the boulevard.
Describes a sunny day on the boulevard.
Skates out, tides up.
Skates are on, ready to go.
Lets go to the liquor store.
Suggests going to the liquor store.
40 ounce, tequila, whiskey, tanqueray.
Listing various alcoholic drinks.
Smoke a little buddha then,
Mentions smoking marijuana, creating a carefree atmosphere.
Everything is okay,
Emphasizes that everything is fine in this state.
Ride onto the beach now,
Heading to the beach on a ride.
Listen to some good sounds,
Planning to enjoy good music.
Bass up, beers up, everybody get down.
Encourages everyone to get into the groove.
We used to wake up and go down, for a walk.
Recalls the past routine of waking up for a walk.
We used to break up and take back, what you want.
Reflects on breaking up and reclaiming what was desired.
Johnny 's in the backroom, looking for some matches,
Repeats the setting of Johnny in the backroom.
Wanna smoke a cigarette, play a little bocce.
Reiterates the desire for a smoke and bocce game.
Sun is out shinning, out on the boulevard.
Restates the sunny atmosphere on the boulevard.
Skids out, tides up.
Skids out, suggesting an adventurous spirit.
Lets go to the liquor store.
Again suggests a trip to the liquor store.
40 ounce, tequila, whiskey, tanqueray.
Repeats the listing of alcoholic drinks.
Smoke a little buddha then,
Reiterates the laid-back use of marijuana.
Everything is okay,
Confirms the sense of well-being in this state.
Ride onto the beach now,
Repeating the plan to ride to the beach.
Listen to some good sounds,
Reaffirms the intention to enjoy good music.
Bass up, beers up, everybody get down.
Encourages everyone to get down and enjoy.
We used to wake up and go down, for a walk.
Reiterates the past routine of morning walks.
We used to break up and take back, what you want
Echoes the theme of reclaiming desired things after a breakup.
So we used to wake up and go down, for a walk.
Repeats the idea of morning walks from the past.
So we used to break up and take back, what you want.
Restates the concept of reclaiming what is wanted after a breakup.
And I'll sing, la la la...
The singer expresses joy with a nonsensical "la la la" refrain.
