Frank's Wild Years

Well, Frank settled down out in The Valley

And he hung his wild years

On a nail that he drove through his wife's forehead

He sold used office furniture out there on San Fernando Road

And assumed a 30,000 dollar loan

At 15 and a half percent and put a down payment

On a little two bedroom place

His wife was a spent piece of used jet trash

Made good bloody Marys, kept her mouth shut most of the time

Had a little Chihuahua named Carlos that had some kind of skin disease

And was totally blind

They had a thoroughly modern kitchen, self cleaning oven

The whole bit

Frank drove a little Sedan

They were so happy

On night, Frank was on his way home from work

He stopped at the liquor store

Pick up a couple Mickey's Big Mouths

Drank 'em in the car on the way to the Shell station

He got a gallon of gas in a can

Drove home, doused everything in the house

Torched it, parked across the street, laughing

Watching it burn, all haloween orange and chimney red

Then Frank put on a top forty station

Got on the Hollywood Freeway and headed north

Never could stand that dog
