"Eddie" lyrics - RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS

RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS
"Eddie"

Sailing the Sunset Strip, I'm a bit of a king
Granny would take a trip, I've been bending the strings
Got hammers in both my hands, such a delicate touch
They say I'm from Amsterdam, does that make me Dutch?

[Chorus:]
Please don't remember me for what I did last night, oh
Please don't remember me, Lord and children
Please don't remember me, it's only 1980
It's only 1983

Smoking the reefer, feeling my own light
My brother's a keeper, I married a TV wife
The devil's Camaro, parked in the high school lot
A little sombrero 'cause teacher was way too hot

[Chorus:]
Please don't remember me for what I did last night, oh
Please don't remember me, listen Lord now
Please don't remember me, it's only 1980
It's only 1983

[Bridge:]
Tell my love "But leave me never"
Can't complain about the weather
Snowing at the Rainbow, have a ball
Cut my teeth down at the Whiskey
GTO's tried to kiss me
One more song, they have seen it all

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus:]
Please don't remember me for what I did last night, oh
Please don't remember me, what'd I say Lord?
Please don't remember me, it's only 1980
It's only 1983

[Post-Chorus:]
Please don't remember me for what I did with David
You know I'm talkin' David Lee, am I ready?
Please don't remember me for what I did last night, oh
I guess I played a Flying V

[Instrumental Outro]
