Peter Falconer - Johnny Got A Toy
from Wake Up by Animal Welfare Sauerland e. V.
about
Exclusive track penned for this charity EP.
lyrics
Johnny got a toy for Christmas
He got it from his uncle Bryan, and it’s driving me mad.
It’s all flashing lights and shiny things
Wheels and a pair of wings
But that’s not all
There’s a big red button on the top that he won’t stop pressing.
And every time he presses it goes…
Johnny got a toy!
Johnny got a toy for Christmas
And if I get a hold of Bryan
I’m going to shove it right up his
Chimney.
It’s alright for him, he’s away this year
And he doesn’t have to listen to this.
But when he has his own kids
They’ll get a gizmo with a button of red-
A cacophony to waken the dead!
Johnny got a toy!
Come all ye faithful
(Hide the batteries!)
We’ll be triumphant
(Bryan’s gonna die!)
Revenge is a dish best served LOUD!
Johnny got a toy!
He got it from his uncle Bryan, and it’s driving me mad.
It’s all flashing lights and shiny things
Wheels and a pair of wings
But that’s not all
There’s a big red button on the top that he won’t stop pressing.
And every time he presses it goes…
Johnny got a toy!
Johnny got a toy for Christmas
And if I get a hold of Bryan
I’m going to shove it right up his
Chimney.
It’s alright for him, he’s away this year
And he doesn’t have to listen to this.
But when he has his own kids
They’ll get a gizmo with a button of red-
A cacophony to waken the dead!
Johnny got a toy!
Come all ye faithful
(Hide the batteries!)
We’ll be triumphant
(Bryan’s gonna die!)
Revenge is a dish best served LOUD!
Johnny got a toy!

Forsaken Innocence

Soothfully a phenomenal prog rock album—an instant classic. What motivates me to say so, is the music’s incredible expressiveness & its wonderfully cinematic song structures. Jargon is a very good fit with this band. It is quite evident that the band’s current lineup have great chemistry together & that they share a common affinity to this vein of music. I look forward to their next creation. Drifting Sun are definitely one of prog rock’s brightest lights. Thank you, DS! 9+/10.

Very enjoyable song. I'd describe it, but you can listen to the song right here and make up your own mind! It's really easy to imagine this as just one chapter in a larger work...
