[Verse 1]
Frankie died just the other night
Some say it was suicide
But we know
How the story goes
With his six string knife and his street-wise pride
The boy was a man before his time
And she knew
All their dreams would come true
But ya see, Frankie was fast
He was too fast to know
He wouldn't go slow until his lethal dose
And she knows
He'll finally come too close

[Chorus]
Well, on with the show, going on with the show
Come on, baby, no, no, no
Oh my, my, my, my, my, oh my
Well, on with the show, going on with the show
Come on, baby, no, no, no
Oh my, my, my, my, my, oh my

[Verse 2]
He was bad, he was nevеr good
But one thing that he understood
And shе knew
All those lies would come true
The time has come and he's paid his dues
Suzy finally got the news
She always knew
This day would come soon

[Chorus]
Well, on with the show, going on with the show
Come on, baby, no, no, no
Oh my, my, my, my, my, oh my
Well, on with the show, going on with the show
Come on, baby, no, no, no
Oh my, my, my, my, my, oh my

[Verse 3]
He was stopped on a dime with a switchblade knife
Some damn punk went and took Frankie's life
And she knew
She'd have to pull through
Broken down, with his broken dreams
With a wink of an eye, said Suzy, "Listen to me"
You must go on with the show

[Chorus]
Well, on with the show, going on with the show
Come on, baby, no, no, no
Oh my, my, my, my, my, oh my
Well, on with the show, going on with the show
Come on, baby, no, no, no
Oh my, my, my, my, my, oh my
On with the show, going on with the show
Come on, baby, no, no, no
Oh my, my, my, my, my, oh my
Ooh, baby

Mötley Crüe

Mötley Crüe is the symbol of the 1980s rock n roll attitude. Formed in Los Angeles, California on January 17, 1981, the group was founded by bassist Nikki Sixx and drummer Tommy Lee, later joined by Mick Mars on the guitar and Vince Neil on the microphone.

Mötley Crüe has revolutionized the rock scene multiple times and officially introduced the idea of the rock show with fireworks, barely dressed girls and flamethrowers. They sold more than 100 million records worldwide.
