Eddie kick started his career
One Summertime in May
A shitty band with friends from school
But only he could really play
The moment that he took the stage
The fans were blown away
I always knew that he'd go far
I'm glad I lived to see the day

Eddie's got twenty-seven kids but he 
Doesn't know
Shame he'll never be around to 
See them grow
Said he screwed a different girl
After every show
But he was always way too gone
To remember though
So Eddie doesn't know

At 3a.m, it's getting late
The after party's closed
But everybody follows Eddie
They just won't leave him alone
Calls seven girls to his hotel room
Takes off all their clothes
Some people say he had it easy
But that is just the way it goes

Eddie's got twenty-seven kids but he 
Doesn't know
Shame he'll never be around to 
See them grow
Said he screwed a different girl
After every show
But he was always way too gone
To remember though
So Eddie doesn't know

He's in deep and there's a reason
He's all alone and he can't change
Like the seasons
They come and they go

To all the kids who don't look
Like their Mum and Dad
Don't freak out, don't you let
It make you mad
As long as they both love you then
You should be glad
Just think about the little problem
Eddie had

Eddie's got twenty-seven kids but he 
Doesn't know
Shame he'll never be around to 
See them grow
Said he screwed a different girl
After every show
But he was always way too gone
To remember though
So Eddie doesn't know

Eddie's got twenty-seven kids but he 
Doesn't know
Shame he'll never be around to 
See them grow
Said he screwed a different girl
After every show
But he was always way too gone
To remember though
