Frankie Teardrop lyrics

[Verse 1]

Frankie Teardrop

Twenty year old Frankie

He's married, he's got a kid

And he's working in a factory

He's working from seven to five

He's just trying to survive

[Refrain]

Well, let's hear it for Frankie

Frankie, Frankie

[Verse 2]

But Frankie can't make it

'Cause things are just too hard

Frankie can't make enough money

Frankie can't buy enough food

And Frankie's getting evicted

[Refrain]

Well, let's hear it for Frankie

Oh, Frankie, Frankie

Oh, Frankie, Frankie

[Verse 3]

Frankie's so desperate

He's gonna kill his wife and kid

Frankie's gonna kill his kid

Frankie picked up a gun

Pointed at the six month old kid in the crib

Oh, Frankie

Ahh!

Frankie looked at his wife

Shot her

Ah

Ahh!!!!

Ugh, ugh

"Oh, what have I done?!"

[Refrain]

Let's hear it for Frankie

Frankie Teardrop

[Verse 4]

Frankie put the gun to his head, mmm

Uhh, uhh Ahh, hmm

Ahh!!!

Mmm, Frankie's dead

Aah, aah, mmm, aah

Ooh, Frankie

[Verse 5]

Aah, aah, aah

Frankie's lying in hell

Ahh, Aahh!!

Aahh!! Aahh!!

Aahh!!

Come on, get up

We're all Frankies

We're all lying in hell

Come on, get up, come on

Aahh!!
