Testo Great Expectations

Johnny's still got all his confirmation money
That you won't let him spend
Works on the buildings till 6 AM in the summer
And you give him twenty percent
Johnny's got a lot on conflicting ideas in his head
And he's oh so afraid
He got himself a power rack and a new haircut
Well he's just tryna make the grade
Those old routines don't go too far
Those old routines ain't what we are

Oh Rosie, oh Rosie
He won't let you down
Oh Rosie, oh Rosie yeah
He won't let you down

Can't leave this town for fear of independence
Yeah boy, polish that ball and chain
And why ever leave this sacred place of worship
When everywhere else probably looks the same
Just get yourself a girl that you don't really love
And stay together for the kids Or you could stand up straight and run outside
Go ahead and live

But those old routines don't get you far
Those old routines ain't what we are

Oh Rosie, oh Rosie
He won't let you down
Oh Rosie, oh Rosie yeah
He won't let you down

And all I see
Is this great expectation
Hanging over you and me
And now you're lying on the floor, man
Head in hands, feeling low
Well you'd just love to get it straight
You pray for 1958
Well go Johnny, go, go

Oh Rosie, oh Rosie
He won't let you down
Oh Rosie, oh Rosie yeah
He won't let you down

Oh Rosie, oh Rosie
He won't let you down
Oh Rosie, oh Rosie yeah
He won't let you down
