Frank’s Wild Years (2023 Remaster)

Frank settled down out in the Valley
And he hung his wild years on a nail that he drove through his wife's forehead
He sold used office furniture out there on San Fernando Road
And assumed a thirty-thousand dollar loan at fifteen and a quarter percent
Put a down payment on a little two-bedroom place
His wife was a spent piece of used jet trash
Made good Bloody Marys, kept her mouth shut most of the time
Had a little chihuahua named Carlos that had some kind of skin disease and was totally blind
They had a thoroughly modern kitchen, self-cleaning oven, the whole bit
Frank drove a little Sedan
They were so happy
One night, Frank was on his way home from work
Stopped at the liquor store
Picked up a couple Mickey's Big Mouths
Drank 'em in the car on the way to the Shell station
He got a gallon of gas in a can
Drove home, doused everything in the house, torched it
Parked across the street, laughing, watching it burn
All Halloween orange and chimney red
Then Frank put on a top 40 station
Got on the Hollywood Freeway and headed north
Never could stand that dog
