Lyrics

Eddie's got one crazy eye That turns him into a cartoon When a pretty girl comes by But there's nothin' here to do anymore He sits on the stoop all day Like there's something he's waiting for Cunt-finger Louie picks up Eddie in the alley He brought some of them boys From that town where everybody looks like Frankie Valli They speak fluently blonde, from her legs to her cigarette Louie told Eddie that he'd fix him up But he ain't come back yet well, you know It's more trouble than it's worth If it's more trouble than it's worth Oh, wild and the only ones Tell him where you are Oh, wild and the only ones Tell him where you are Tell him where you are Zero quit school and she lost her job again And then her boyfriend beat her up He won't let her in She's walking by this joint, in a black and blue dress She looks at Louie who elbows Eddie who says Don't tell me, lemme guess It's more trouble than it's worth, oh, girl He's more trouble than he's worth Oh, wild and the only ones Tell him where you are Oh, wild and the only ones, go on Tell him where you are At first when it was this way, 'cause they'll be the only ones You got all these ideas, you never tell to anyone There are always magnets, pulling each of you there Living every story you'd dare, to be the only ones The only ones Who are living it up Yeah, we're living it up We'll be living it up Oh, yeah, we're living it up We'll be living it up Oh, yeah, we're living it up We'll be living it up Yeah, we're living it up Oh, yeah, we're living it up Oh, yeah, we're living it up Yeah, we're living it up, it up Louie and Eddie found a reason then and there They carried her over the bridges like fluttering pages, they didn't care 'Casue there's a terminal where dreams let so many tickets through When strangers look in faces and see somebody there they knew You might meet me tomorrow when all the lights are blooming green And you're feeling a little lonely, a little sad, a little mean Remember the place inside of that hotel You can do anything you wanna do, you can never tell It's more trouble than it's worth Sometimes is more trouble than it's worth Oh, wild and the only ones Tell me where you are Oh, wild and the only ones I've been waiting for you, you should Tell me where you are I've been waiting, mmm I'm so excited my mind is blank My friend Sal Benardie who used to live here In San Francisco for many years Said he thought all the fog brought in spirits And they manifested on the streets of San Francisco And that's most of the population
