"Johnny Can't Decide" lyrics

[JON:]
Break of day, the dawn is here
Johnny's up and pacing
Compromise or persevere?
His mind is racing

Johnny has no guide
Johnny wants to hide
Can he make his mark, if he gives up his spark?
Johnny can't decide

Susan longs to live by the sea
She's through with competition
Susan wants a life with me
Johnny's got a tough decision

Johnny has no guide

[JON & KARESSA:]
Johnny wants to hide
Can he settle down

[KARESSA, (JON):]
And still not drown? (And still not... drown?)

[JON & KARESSA:]
Johnny can't decide

[JON:]
Michael's gonna have it all
His luck will never end
Johnny's backed against the wall
Can he bend his dream, just like his friend?

[JON, (KARESSA):]
Johnny sees that Susan's right (Susan's right)

[JON & KARESSA:]
Ambition eats right through you

[ROGER, (JON):]
Michael doesn't see why Johnny holds so tight (I hold so tight)

[ROGER & JON, ALL:]
To the things that Johnny feels are true

[ROGER & KARESSA, (JON):]
Johnny has no guide (Johnny has no guide)
Johnny wants to hide (Johnny wants to hide)

[ROGER & JON:]
How can you soar
When you're nailed to the floor?

[ALL:]
Johnny can't decide

[ROGER & KARESSA, (JON):]
Johnny has no guide (Johnny has no guide)
Johnny wants to hide (Johnny wants to hide)

[ALL:]
How do you know when it's time to let go?

[JON, ROGER, KARESSA:]
Johnny can't decide (Johnny; Johnny can't decide)
Johnny can't decide (Decide; decide)
Johnny can't decide (Johnny; Johnny can't decide)
Johnny can't decide (Decide; decide)
Decide (Decide, decide; decide)
Decide, decide (Decide)

[JON:]
Johnny can't decide
