¶Lyrics / Text

The majority of people, as we go through life, attempt to get by with minimal strife between friend and neighbor, husband and wife. But, as all of us know, it's a very sad fact that some will be offended by the way we act, even when we take pains to exercise tact. But our John has got no enemies. I don't know how he does it; though I aim to please, I must not have reached perfection for I've got a fine collection of very nasty enemies. Well now, people who are otherwise sane have been known to maintain that I am their bane. How they come by this conviction I can't explain, but I must say they give me a pain. But our John has got no enemies. He seems to know how to soothe and appease. Even gentle Jesus was spat upon, but you have to be crazy, out and out crazy, legitimately crazy not to like John.
