Frankie died just the other night
Some say it was suicide
But we know
How the story goes
With his six string knife
And his street-wise pride
The boy was a man before his time
And she knew
All their dreams would come true
But ya see Frankie was fast
He was too fast to know
He wouldn`t go slow
Until his lethal dose
And she knows
He`ll finally come too close
[Chorus]
Well on with the show
Going on with the show
Come on baby
No, no, no
Oh my, my, my, my, my, my
[Chorus]
He was bad
He was never good
But one thing that he understood
And she knew
All these lies would come true
The time has come
And he`s paid his dues
And Suzy finally got the news
She always knew
This day would come soon
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
He was stopped on a dime
With a switchblade knife
Some damn punk went and
Took Frankie`s life
And she knew
She`d have to pull through
Broken down
With his broken dreams
With a wink of an eye
Said Suzy, listen to me
You must go
On with the show
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Oh baby
