Mendy is sixteen and uncontrollable
Mendy is only a child
Mendy is in with the in-crowd
Mendy is ever so wild
Mendy's hair hangs straight and long
Mendy feels this is a must
Mini-skirts and many friends
And many horrors for us
Mendy finds a plenty to do
But Mendy never sleeps
Mendy slips out of the house in the evening
When the sun is sinking
Mendy is out with the in-crowd
Mendy is smoking and drinking
There's a different shine in Mendy's eyes
And the color is gone from her cheeks
Mendy is a swinger but Mendy never sleeps
Mendy never sleeps
And Mendy is growing weak
Mendy lies lifeless and limp in her eyes now
Oh Mendy please don't go to sleep
Mendy is only a child
Mendy is in with the in-crowd
Mendy is ever so wild
Mendy's hair hangs straight and long
Mendy feels this is a must
Mini-skirts and many friends
And many horrors for us
Mendy finds a plenty to do
But Mendy never sleeps
Mendy slips out of the house in the evening
When the sun is sinking
Mendy is out with the in-crowd
Mendy is smoking and drinking
There's a different shine in Mendy's eyes
And the color is gone from her cheeks
Mendy is a swinger but Mendy never sleeps
Mendy never sleeps
And Mendy is growing weak
Mendy lies lifeless and limp in her eyes now
Oh Mendy please don't go to sleep
