If Bukowski was good looking
And Napoleon was tall
If Joan of Arc just took her meds
She'd be a movie star
If up was down and down was up
Imagine where we'd be
The New York Dolls would still be here
Music would be free
And I'd be high, as high as Johnny Thunders
In the land that time forgot
High as Johnny Thunders
Well, if Romeo and Juliet had a couple kids
Shakespeare would be on the dole and I'd be President
I'd sit there with my feet up, all hours of the night
I'll be talking to my baby, I'd say baby. lets not fight
And I'd be high, as high as Johnny Thunders
In the land that time forgot
High as Johnny Thunders
[Sax and Guitar Solos]
And if families stayed together
I'd have a window seat
And all the children of the world
Would have enough to eat
If heartbreak was a virtue
Man, I'd be so virtuous
To get back in your pants
I might hijack a city bus
And I'd be high, as high as Johnny Thunders
In the land that time forgot
High as Johnny Thunders
