"Wild Child"


	I was talkin' to Chuck in his Genghises Khan suit
	and his wizard's hat
	He spoke of his movie and how he was makin'
	a new sound track

	And then we spoke of kids on the coast
	and different types of organic soap
	And the way suicides don't leave notes
	Then we spoke of Loraine, always back to Lorraine

	I was speakin' to Bill who was given to pills
	and small racing cars
	He had given them up since his last crack-up
	had carried him too far

	Then we spoke of the movies and verse
	and the way an actress held her purse
	And the way life at times can get worse
	Then we spoke of Loraine
	always back to Lorraine

	Ah, she's a wild child
	and nobody can get at her
	She's a wild child
	oh, and nobody can get to her

	Sleepin' out on the street
	Oh, livin' all alone
	without a house or a home
	and then she asked you, please
	hey, baby, can I have some spare change
	Oh, can I break your heart?

	She's a wild child, she's a wild child

	I was talkin' to Betty about her auditions
	how they made her ill
	But life is the theater, is certainly fraught
	with many spills and chills

	But she'd come down after some wine
	which is what happens most of the time
	Then we sat and both spoke in rhymes
	Till we spoke of Loraine
	ah, always back to Lorraine

	I was talking to Ed who's been reported dead
	by mutual friends
	He thought it was funny that I had no money
	to spend on him

	So we both shared a piece of sweet cheese
	and sang of our lives and our dreams
	And how things can come apart at the seams
	And we talk of Lorraine
	always back to Lorraine

	She's a wild child
	oh, and nobody can get at her
	She's a wild child
	oh, and nobody can get to her

	Sleepin' out on the street
	Oh, livin' all alone
	without a house or a home
	and then she asked you, please,
	oh, baby, can I have some spare change
	Now can I break your heart?"

	She's a wild child, she's a wild child
