JOHNNY, HAVE YOU COME LATElY?

Johnny, have you come lately?
Everyone, greatly, wants to know
’Cos Julie’s in a wee spot of bother
She’s been to the doctors with her mum

Johnny was the head boy of our year
Johnny’s got a future far from here
Could it be his baby?
Definitely Maybe
It’s so sad, why am I smiling?

Johnny, have you come lately?
Everyone, greatly, wants to know
’Cos Julie’s in a wee spot of bother
She’s been to the doctors with her mum

Julie was the fifth year prom dance queen
Julie’s every schoolboy’s first wet dream
She’s so nice and pretty
Isn’t it a pity?
It’s so sad, why am I smiling?

Johnny, have you come lately?
Everyone, greatly, wants to know
’Cos Julie’s in a wee spot of bother
She’s been to the doctors with her mum

They’ve let down their families
They’ve let down themselves
But I’ve let down no-one
Thank fuck I’m a virgin

Johnny never picked me for football
Julie never spoke to me at all
Living in a bubble
Now they’re both in trouble
I’m so glad, that’s why I’m smiling

Johnny, have you come lately?
Everyone, greatly, wants to know
’Cos Julie’s in a wee spot of bother
She’s been to the doctors with her mum

Johnny, have you come lately?
Johnny, have you come lately?
Johnny, have you come lately...?
