The Rocky Horror Show soundtrack – Eddie lyrics

Dr. Everett v. Scott:
From the day he was born
He was trouble
He was the thorn
In his mother's side
She tried in vain

Criminologist: But he never caused her nothing but shame

Dr. Everett v. Scott: He left home the day she died
From the day she was gone
All he wanted
Was rock and roll porn
And a motorbike
Shooting up junk

Criminologist: He was a low down cheap little punk

Dr. Everett v. Scott: Taking everyone for a ride

Chorus:
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 switch blade knife

Dr. Frank-N-Furter: What a guy

Janet Weiss: Makes you cry

Dr. Everett v. Scott: And 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

Dr. Everett v. Scott: But he must've been drawn
Into something
Making him warn me
In a note which reads

Chorus: What's it say? What's it say?

Eddie:
I'm out of my head
Oh hurry, or I may be dead
They mustn't carry out their evil deeds

Chorus:
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 switch blade knife

Dr. Frank-N-Furter: What a guy

Janet Weiss: Makes you cry

Dr. Everett v. Scott: And I did

Chorus:
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 switch blade knife

Dr. Frank-N-Furter: What a guy

Chorus: Whoa ho ho

Janet Weiss: Makes you cry

Chorus: Hey hey hey

Dr. Everett v. Scott: And I did

Chorus: Eddie
