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

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......(repeat)



He was bad

He was never good

But one thing that he understood

And she knew

All those lies would come true



The time has come and

He's paid his dues

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



Go on with the show

Going on with the show

Come on baby

No no no

Oh my my my my......(repeat)

Oh baby
