I had a friend was a big hollywood star
Since he was a teen
He has a lot of attitude
He could hardly cause a scene
Saw him the other night at this java hut
I was sitting out, he was jumping in
When he was inside, sat down had a few drinks
The actor with a mean grin was

Johnny Cage, he's a real cool guy
Johnny Cage, in the blink of a fanboy's eye
Johnny Cage, Johnny Cage

Well there's a movie-going public
And several critics that amazed him
Someday he would have to stay away
From those cigarette-smoking idiots and pimps
He crouches strangely to set up a split punch
Which will strike you below the belt
Just in case you had much messing 'round with him
You would feel the pain from that
You start screaming, crying for help

Johnny Cage, he's a real cool guy
Johnny Cage, in the blink of a fanboy's eye
Johnny Cage, Johnny Cage

Would you dare to defeat his "draggin' punch"?
And dodge his dash kick
Where he leaves an afterimage trail behind
Though, it might smash a pile of bricks

29 years old and he boosts his career
Turnin' bottom lines into top lines
Though he'd won almost every fight like barroom brawls
Even Cyrax had saw Ninja Mime

Johnny Cage, yeah he came back
Johnny Cage, boy he gets really mad
Johnny Cage, Johnny Cage

Johnny Cage, he's a real cool guy
Johnny Cage, in the blink of a fanboy's eye
Johnny Cage, Johnny Cage
