lyrics

If Bukowski was good looking
And Napoleon was tall
If Joan of Arc just took her meds
She’d be a movie star
If up was down and down was up
Imagine where we’d be
The New York Dolls would still be here
And music would be free

And I’d be high
As high as Johnny Thunders
In the land that time forgot
High as Johnny Thunders

Well, if Romeo and Juliet
Had a couple kids
Shakespeare would be on the dole
And I’d be president
I’d sit there with my feet up
All hours of the night
I’d be talking to my baby
I’d say, “Baby, let’s not fight”

And I’d be high
As high as Johnny Thunders
In the land that time forgot
High as Johnny Thunders

And if families stayed together
I’d have a window seat
And all the children of the world
Would have enough to eat
If heartbreak was a virtue
Man, I’d be so virtuous
To get back in your pants
I might hijack a city bus

And I’d be high
As high as Johnny Thunders
In the land that time forgot
High as Johnny Thunders
