Lyrics
Frankie and Annette
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Frankie and Annette ran off at sixteen and it all started at a red sox ball game
In a cracker jack box, Frankie found a ring and said "how's about making me a man?"
Frankie was just laid off at the store, they said
"Kid, you've got some shit to learn about selling cheese to customers."
If you're not wrapping it in cellophane you're writing it
It's all about your fifteen seconds
And it's all about walking away from the wreck
It's all about assembling a life from what's left on the streets
Hubcap coffee cups and broken love seats
They took off on the road in fraudulent car
Held a cashier at gunpoint in a Cumberland farms
Got married by a guy who was impersonating a judge
And for twenty-five dollars did house-calls
It's all about your fifteen seconds
And it's all about walking away from the wreck
It's all about assembling a life from what's left on the streets
Hubcap coffee cups and broken love seats
Maybe I'll buy you a little house down on Grasshopper Street
Nine to five behind a pavoni machine
Then I'll know you up with a little baby
And we'll name him Martinez
They got caught by the cops when they got to Columbus
"Kids, who is it that put you up to this?"
Frankie said it was fate, Annette said it was love
"Book 'em danno, we got our front page
It's all about your fifteen seconds
And it's all about walking away from the wreck
It's all about assembling a life from what's left on the streets
Hubcap coffee cups and broken love seats
Hubcap coffee cups and broken love seats
Oh, hubcap coffee cups and broken love seats
