How come he don't come and P.L.P. with me (PLP stands for Public Leaning Post) Down at the meter no more? How come he turn off the t.v. And he hang that sign on the door? We call and we call 'How come?' we say What could make a boy behave this way? He learn all of the lines, and every time he don't suffer when he talk And it's true! It's true! He sure is aquired a cool and inspired sorta jazz when he walk Where's his jacket and his old blue jeans? If this ain't healthy is it some kinda clean?
I think Chuck E's in love
I don't believe what you're saying to me This is something I gotta see Is he here? Look in the poolhall Is he here? Look in the drugstore Is he here? No, he don't come here no more
I'll tell you what I saw him He was sittin' us down at the Pantages And whatever is that he got up his sleeve I hope it isn't contagious What's her name? Is that her there? Christ, I think he's even combed his hair! Is that her? What's her name? Oh, it's never going to be same. But that's not her I know what's wrong Chuck E's in love with the little girl who's singing this song Chuck E's in love with me
