Ladies and gentlemen, here's my disease   Give me a standing ovation and your sympathy   Poor old johnny yen set himself on fire again      See the jeaned genie on his high-wire act   At the back of his mind lies a suicide pact   Poor old johnny yen set himself on fire again      See the young men itching to burn   Waiting for their own star turn   Needing danger, a war would do   If they can't let it out, they'll pick on you   Poor old johnny yen set himself on fire again      See houdini and his underwater tricks   You were sitting at the front, hoping his locks would stick   Watch knievel hit the 17th bus   You got crushed in the souvenir rush   Poor old johnny yen set himself on fire again      I said poor old johnny yen set himself on fire again   See the young men itching to burn   Waiting for their own star turn   Needing danger, a war would do   If they can't let it out, they'll pick on you   Poor old johnny yen set himself on fire again      Ladies and gentlemen, here's my disease   Give me a standing ovation and your sympathy      Come on, somebody, finish him off please   Put the poor fool out of his misery, will you   Can't you see he's had enough?    Finish him off, somebody      Next!
