My Joanna

Do you revel in your strangeness, my Joanna?

My Joanna, do that wicked thing to me

Because none of us are blameless, my Joanna

My Joanna, are you scared by what you see?

Please hold on, please hold on...

Cause in the city in the night-time

You've been dreaming of the shoreline

My Joanna, let me in

Did you plan on getting famous?

Are you here to entertain us?

Whoa, Joanna. Where ya been?

Do you want for better things, my sweet Joanna?

My Joanna, are you lost amongst your thoughts?

Do you wish you could grow wings, my sweet Joanna?

My Joanna, do your wishes count for nought?

Please hold on, please hold on...

Cause in the city in the night-time

You've been dreaming of the shoreline

My Joanna, let me in

Did you plan on getting famous?

Are you here to entertain us?

Whoa, Joanna. Where ya been?

And when the shouting and the lies

Tear out the backs of both your eyes

Don't let them win...

Y'know, some of us will see you as a poor girl

And some of us will see you as a thief

In your eyes I see that you've been through the war, girl

Ah, some of us just want to see what's underneath

Please hold on, please hold on...

Cause in the city in the night-time

You've been dreaming of the shoreline

My Joanna, let me in

Did you plan on getting famous?

Are you here to entertain us?

Whoa, Joanna. Where ya been?

And when the shouting and the lies

Tear out the backs of both your eyes

Don't let them win...

Do you revel in your strangeness, my Joanna
?
My Joanna do that wicked thing to me
