From the day he was born
He was trouble
He was the thorn
In his mother's side
She tried in vain

But he never caused her nothing but shame

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

He was a low down cheap little punk

Taking everyone for a ride

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

What a guy

Makes you cry

And I did

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

But he must've been drawn
Into something
Making him warn me
In a note which reads

What's it say? What's it say?

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

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

What a guy

Makes you cry

And I did

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

What a guy

Whoa ho ho

Makes you cry

Hey hey hey

And I did

Eddie

From the day he was born
he was trouble
er war ein Dorn
in seiner Mutter Fleisch
Tränen und Gram

- und ihr Herz quoll über von Scham

Er ging fort, als sie dann starb.
From the day she was gone
hat er's getrieben
pornographisch im Wald
auf'm Motorrad
'n Schuß gesetzt

- und wild durch die Straßen gehetzt.

Ja, das war unheimlich hart.

Wenn Eddie sagt, ich hasse meinen Teddy
klar, das is'n Horrortyp
es kam noch besser
er drohte mit 'nem Messer

What a guy
makes you cry

ging zu weit

Alle fanden ihn eklig
ich fand, er war niedlich
ich sagte. Mensch, bleibe wie du bist
es gibt da eine Superlist
nach außen tut man wie beknackt -
innen hat man's längst gepackt

Doch da war irgendwas
das ihn faszinierte
er hat mich gewarnt
und mir dann gesagt.

Was gesagt? Was gesagt?

Im Kopf schon ganz wild

Ganz schnell oder ich werd' gekillt

Sie bauen sicher schon seinen Sarg

What a guy

Makes you cry

Das ging zu weit!

Eddie.

Betet für Eddie. Ich habe ihn gerade
eingeäschert...
Sein Schicksal ist gut versiegelt!!

From the day he was born, he was trouble
He was the thorn in his mother's side,
She tried in vain,

But he never caused her nothing but shame.

He left home the day she died,
From the day he was gone
All he wanted
Was a rockin' roll porn and a motor bike
Shootin' up junk.

He was a low down cheap little punk.

Taking everyone for a ride.

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.

What a guy.

Makes you cry.

And I did.

Everybody shoved him,
I very nearly loved him.
I said hey listen to me,
Stay sane inside insanity,
But he shut the door and threw away the key.

But he must have been drawn into something,
Making him warn me in a note which read

What's it say, What's it say.

I'm out of my head.

Hurry or I may be dead.

They mustn't carry out their evil deeds.

(CHORUS):

(REPEAT):

What a guy.

Makes you cry.

And I did.
