like:

“But, Johnny didn’t care

He was an outlaw by the time that he was ten years old

He didn’t wanna do what he was told

Just a prankster

A juvenile gangster” (Only a Lad)

“ From the day he was born, he was trouble

He was a 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”

“Shootin’ up junk

He was a low down cheap little punk” (Eddie’s teddy)

they just give me a kind of similar vibe

    Ha ha, you made me listen to the entire song and yes, my mind was dragged through the whole concept of the Rocky Horror scene. Thinking on Eddie riding up that ramp on his motorcycle, the great female vocals, the theatrics and Meatloaf… Narr, the lyrics are awesome but the sound was more, alternative Cali pop or Aussie 80’s sound for me.
