Iggy Pop (born James Newell Osterberg, Jr.; April 21, 1947) is an American singer, songwriter, musician, and actor. Though widely known as an innovator of punk rock, Pop's music has encompassed a number of styles over the years, including pop, hard rock, jazz and blues. Pop became known as 'Iggy' in high school, during which time he served as drummer for local blues band The Iguanas. He is vocalist of influential protopunk band The Stooges (Pop and the other surviving members of the group reunited in 2003), having become known, since the late 1960s, for his outrageous and unpredictable stage antics. more »

Hey, man, I see you
Open up, okay
Get out of here, Iggy
Come on now, fix me up

Love becomes compulsive
It's wiser to say no
God made me a junkie
But Satan told me so

You're strung out, Johnny
And you can't get away
You're strung out, Johnny
And now it's time to pay

First time, you do it with a friend
Second time, you do it in a bed
Third time, you can't get enough
And your life gets all fucked up

All fucked up
You're strung out Johnny (strung out Johnny, oh)
You're strung out Johnny (strung out Johnny, oh)

Ronny said to Donnie
Sell that boy a spoon
Dump him like a hero
Or be forgotten soon

I'm strung out, mommy
And I can't get away
I'm strung out, mommy
And now it's time to pay

First time, you do it with a friend
Second time, you do it in a bed
Third time, you can't get enough
And your life gets all fucked up

All fucked up
You're strung out, Johnny

You're strung out, Johnny (strung out, Johnny, oh)
And you can't get away
You're strung out, Johnny (strung out, Johnny, oh)
And now it's time to pay
You're strung out, Johnny (strung out, Johnny, oh)
Nobody loves you so
You're strung out, Johnny (strung out, Johnny, oh)
And that's the way it goes
I'm strung out, mommy (strung out, Johnny, oh)
I'm strung out, mommy (strung out, Johnny, oh)
You're strung out, Johnny
