[00:24.732]When I was young I had a friend
[00:26.991]Father said she was make-pretend
[00:29.501]Joanna was her name and life was innocence
[00:34.520]Doctors tried to claw her out
[00:37.028]And pills tried to push her down
[00:39.790]She was part of me, she came back again
[00:44.054]But not before long
[00:46.564]When all was said and done
[00:48.822]I knew that it was really her and me
[00:54.093]The boys in the crowd
[00:56.602]They said they’d beat her out
[00:59.111]They’d exorcise this little witch in me
[01:04.379]By the time that all
[01:07.642]The teachers had arrived
[01:10.154]It was too late
[01:12.910]They bludgeoned her to death
[01:15.419]Outside the gate
[01:17.678]She slipped away
[01:19.184]Into the summer rain
[01:22.697]And never was the same
[01:29.221]Oh Joanna dear
[01:32.733]I thought this song would make you disappear
[01:37.751]And banish you somehow
[01:40.262]Though as I sing it now
[01:42.771]I hear your voice so loud
[01:47.784]So there can be no doubt
[01:52.803]That somehow you crept out
