John and Jonathan are on the town
John and Jonathan, they go up, they go down
At the Bowery, in line they wait
They will stay all night then wake at eight

John and Jonathan are at the café
John likes coffee black, and Jon au lait
Making good decisions, they must have taste
They stand by their choices, they stand, they face

But how will I know if they care for me?
Do I believe what they say?
When I'm on stage they all cheer for me
I must soak up the praise
And save it for a rainy day

Dear John and Jonathan
Who am I to you?
Dear John and Jonathan
Je ne sais quoi

John and Jonathan are on the town
John and Jonathan, they go up, they go down
At the Bowery, in line they wait
They will stay all night then wake at eight

But how will I know if they care for me?
Do I believe what they say?
When I'm on stage they all cheer for me
I must soak up the praise
And save it for a rainy day
