EDDIE'S TEDDY ============= >From the ``Rocky Horror Picture Show'' Words and Music by Richard O'Brien, around 1973 D G A D D7 (DR. SCOTT) From the day he was born, he was trouble. G A D D7 He was the thorn in his mutter's side G A D Bm She tried in vain. (NARRATOR) But he never caused her nothing but shame. G A (SCOTT) He left home the day she died. G A D >From the day she was gone All he wanted G A D was rock and roll, porn, und a motor bike G A D Bm Shooting up junk. (NARRATOR) He was a low-down, cheap little punk.
