Be Good Johnny
"Be Good Johnny" is a song recorded by the Australian band Men at Work, from their first album, ''Business as Usual''.
The song achieved moderate airplay on American radio stations, but did not chart on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 as it was not released in the United States as a physical single, a requirement for the chart at the time. However, it did chart on ''Billboards Top Tracks, where it peaked at number three.
==Content==
The song is written from the viewpoint of a 9-year-old boy who is constantly being told to be good, but prefers to daydream rather than concentrate in class or play sports. Johnny feels like he understands some of his instructions, but also that he is completely misunderstood by the adult world.〔(Be Good Johnny Song Facts ) ''SongFacts''. Retrieved on January 7, 2007.〕 The lead singer, Colin Hay, uses his voice in different ways throughout the song to imitate Johnny, Johnny's mother and father, and his teacher. The song also features spoken dialogue by keyboardist Greg Ham as he tries to figure out what Johnny is like. The title of the song is a reference to Johnny B. Goode.
