EDDIE'S TEDDY
Words and Music by Richard O'Brien, around 1973
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.
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.
