Well, Johnny's just a normal boy, he can't get enough,
Doesn't care on Saturday if Sunday's a little rough,
And mixed up by emotions ' cool or is he tough'
Acting like somebody let him down.

He's gonna take you'take you by surprise,
He's gonna make you'make you realise,
He'll rearrange you, shake you up inside,
He'll put you on the turning tide.

Expanding his horizons, he been looking overseas,
Been picking all the holes in everything that he believes,
Seeing only sense now, burning with defeat,
Pressurized by popular opinion.

He's gonna take you'take you by surprise,
Gonna make you'make you realise,
He'll rearrange you, shake you up inside,
He'll put you on the turning tide.

His past been catching up on him; didn't count the cost,
A little golden Jesus on made-to-measure cross,
Counting out his coppers, adding up his loss,
Wonders how a wanderer returns.

He's gonna take you'take you by surprise,
Gonna make you'make you realise,
He'll rearrange you, shake you up inside,
He'll put you on a turning tide,
He's gonna take you'take you by surprise,
Gonna make you'make you realise,
He'll rearrange you, shake you up inside,
