about

This song is La Need Machine's ode to the late, great Marlon Brando. The song verses track our two favorite Brando movies The Wild One and The Godfather. This song is also a nod to the Ramones in that there are two verses that repeat themselves!

lyrics

JOHNNY’S REBELLION

VERSE
RODE INTO TOWN ON A BIG, LOUD BIKE
THEY COULD TELL RIGHT AWAY HE’D TAKE WHATEVER HE LIKED
DIDN’T HAVE A PLAN, DIDN’T HAVE A CARE
BUT HE GOT THAT GIRL WITH THE PRETTY HAIR
THEY TRIED TO SEND HIM DOWN, TRIED TO SET HIM UP
BUT ALL HE COULD SAY WAS – I HATE COPS

CHORUS
HE WAS BIGGER THAN LIFE ON THE MOVIE SCREEN
HE WAS COOL, TOUGH, HANDSOME, AND MEAN
DIDN’T SING A SONG, COULDN’T STAY ON KEY
BUT HE WAS THE COOLEST GUY
I’VE EVER SEEN

VERSE
VITO CORLEONE FROM SICILY
MOVED TO NEW YORK TO START A NEW FAMILY
KILL A MAN, SELL A PROSTITUTE
HE HAD SENATORS, JUDGES, AND CAPTAINS TO BOOT
BUT SELLING DRUGS GODFATHER WOULDN’T DO
I GAVE HIM AN OFFER, HE CAN’T REFUSE
