It's another day at school
And he's just walking out the door
Got his rucksack on his back and his feet dragging on the floor
Always late but when he's questioned he can't think of what to say
Hides the bruises from the teachers hoping that they go away
Even though his mum and dad they both got problems of their own
Caught in a catch 22 but he'd still rather be at home
Cries himself to sleep and prays when he wakes up things might have changed
But everything's still the same

(But didn't you say)
You always said that I should speak up...mmm
But it seems like all the things you said to me before meant nothing at all
Because...

I keep telling you that Johnny's hittin' me
That's why I'm late for school
(But you never listen)
Instead you always seem to end up blaming me for things I didn't do
(For what its worth)
I didn't even wanna to tell you anything in case it made things worse
(Just so you know)
Every time, I say that Johnny's hittin' me
Hey mum and dad it hurts

Everyday keeps on repeating like a record on replay
Slowly getting off the bus with Johnny waiting at the gates
Like a friend he'll smile and wave at him
While calling out his name
Put his arm around his neck whisper now gimme all your change
Too affraid to make a scene or plead with him to let him go
He just takes whatever's coming feels the pain with every blow
Tries in vain to make himself be heard as soon as he gets home
But everything's still the same

(But didn't you say)
You always said that I should speak up...mmm
But it seems like all the things you said to me before meant nothing at all
Because...

I keep telling you that Johnny's hittin' me
That's why I'm late for school
(But you never listen)
Instead you always seemed to end up blaming me for things I didn't do
(For what its worth)
I didn't even wanna to tell you anything in case it made things worse
(Just so you know)
Every time, I say that Johnny's hittin' me
Hey mum and dad it hurts

You always said that I should speak up...mmm
And to never be afraid to come and tell you if I needed to talk
(If I needed to talk yeah)
Well I don't know the meaning of love...mmm
'Cos it seems like all the things you said to me before meant nothing at all
Because...

I keep telling you that Johnny's hittin' me
That's why I'm late for school
But you never listen
Instead you always seemed to end up blaming me for things I didn't do
For what its worth
I didn't even wanna to tell you anything in case it made things worse
Just so you know
Every time I say that Johnny's hittin' me
Hey mum and dad it hurts
