Sister devastation was a good friend of his
She held him very long and very right
She whispered him to sleep with the blues in the night
And she slept until the dawn dragged him into light
He used to dream he lived
by the ocean so blue
and his bride was a princess form the north,
He used to see the future in a potion that he drank
but the more he saw the more he fell apart
Everybody loved Johnny Silvers
everybody missed him when he died
Everybody loved Johnny Silvers
'cause everybody has a piece of him inside
Jesus was a junkyhe was strung out on a cross
and the devil was just a little child
strummin' for a loss,
They put the two together,
starring into a film, and they lifted the story from
the good book of doom
Everybody loved Johnny Silvers
everybody missed him when he died
Everybody loved Johnny Silvers
'cause everybody has a piece of him inside
He drove himself past oblivion
he was shot from both sides
when they found his boy his soul just cried
it said, take me from this heaven
take me from this hell,
it's a place, i've lived far too long and know too well.
Everybody loved Johnny Silvers
everybody missed him when he died
Everybody loved Johnny Silvers
'cause everybody has a piece of him inside
Everybody, everybody missed him when he died (x2)
Everybody loved Johnny Thunders
everybody missed him when he died
Everybody loved Stiv Bators
'cause everybody has a piece of him inside
