Lyrics
Eddies Teddy
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.
From the day he was born, he was trouble
He was the thorn in his mother's side
She tried in vain, but he never caused her nothing but shame
He left home the day she died
From the day she was gone, all he wanted
Was rock'n'roll, porn and a motorbike
Shooting up junk
He was a low-down, cheap little punk
Taking everyone for a ride
When Eddie said he didn't like his teddy you knew he was a no-good kid
But when he threatened your life with a switchblade knife
What a guy
Makes you cry
And I did
Everybody shoved him, I very nearly loved him
I said hey listen to me, stay sane inside insanity
But he locked the door and threw away the key
But he must been drawn into something
Making him warn me in a note which reads (what's it say, what's it say?)
"I'm outta my head, o hurry or I may be dead
They mustn't carry out their evil deeds"
When Eddie said he didn't like his teddy you knew he was a no-good kid
But when he threatened your life with a switchblade knife
What a guy
Makes you cry
And I did
When Eddie said he didn't like his teddy you knew he was a no-good kid
But when he threatened your life with a switchblade knife
What a guy, oh oh oh
Makes you cry, hey hey hey
And I did
