Lyrics
The kids all called him Johnny Zero
In school they always used to say
“Johnny got a zero, Johnny got a zero
Johnny got a zero today”
The kids all laughed at Johnny Zero
And they would tease him when they’d play
“Johnny got a zero, Johnny got a zero
Johnny got a zero today”
He couldn’t concentrate on studies
His mind was always in the sky
When he grew up he left his buddies
And Johnny learned how to fly
Now they still call him Johnny Zero
And all the pilots proudly say
“Johnny got a zero, he got another zero
Johnny got a zero, hooray!”
Johnny Zero is a hero today
