Mommy
Johnny smashed my castle

It was me
It was mine
It made me big
It made me shine

It said look at me
It said I'm the best
It said loud & proud
'Go screw the rest!'

It took a lotta time
It took a lotta pain
It took a lotta guts
It took a lotta brain

Now Mommy
Johnny smashed my castle

He laughed in my face
He took away my pride
He shook down my game
He made me fear inside

I feel this awful hate
And someone's gotta pay
He brought me to my knees
My whole world turned to grey

Sh+i+t Mommy!
Johnny-smashed-my-castle!

They're all LAUGHIN' at me now
And someone's gotta die
I'll grind his face in dirt
Beside my castles in the sky

Hey!! I liked this one.  It flowed along nicely.  Had a great beat to it!

Thanks, often "Johnny Foreigner" is like a voodoo doll - you can stab him and try to kill the idea behind him - but all you do is create an even greater monster in your own mind...
