EDDIE'S TEDDY
=============
>From the ``Rocky Horror Picture Show''
Words and Music by Richard O'Brien, around 1973

	    			     	 	  	    
(DR. SCOTT) From the day he was born,      he was trouble.
		    			    	
He was the thorn       in his mutter's side
		      	     					
She tried in vain. (NARRATOR) But he never caused her nothing but shame.
	 			  
(SCOTT)  He left home the day she died.

			    	       
>From the day she was gone	All he wanted
		          		     
was rock and roll, porn,    und a motor bike
		 	   	       			  
Shooting up junk. (NARRATOR) He was a low-down, cheap little punk.
			      
(SCOTT) Taking everyone for a ride.

CHORUS:

			   
(ALL)   When Eddie said he didn't like his teddy
    			        
You knew he was a no good kid
				    
When he threatened your life with a switch blade knife --
	 						    
(FRANK)  What a guy. (JANET)  Makes you cry. (SCOTT)  Und I did.

	    	       	    		
(COLUMBIA)  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.

				           			       
(SCOTT) But he must have been drawn     into something. Making him warn
			
me in a note which reads   (ALL) What's it say?  What's it say?
			    	  		    
(EDDIE) I'm out of my hed.     O, hurry or I may be dead.
     				  
They mustn't carry out their evil deeds.


(Repeat CHORUS twice; the second time the last line goes:)

							    
(FRANK)  What a guy. (JANET)  Makes you cry. (SCOTT)  Und I did.
         
(ALL) Woe  woe.
