I met a boy called Frank Mills on September 12'th right here in front of the waverly but unfourtunately I lost his address he was last seen with his friend a drummer he resembles George Harrison of the Beatles but he wears his hair tied in a small bow at the back I love him but it embarasess me to walk down the street with him he lives in Brooklyn somewhere and he wears his white crash helmet he has golden chains on his leather jacket and on the back are written the names Mary and Mom and Hells Angels I would gratefully appreciate it if you see him tell him I'm at the park with my girlfriend and please tell him Angela and I don't want the two dollars back just him
