Eddie The Eunuch

Kris Kristofferson · Surreal Thing [1976]

(Kris Kristofferson)



Eddie the Eunuch was a weasel

Nasty as an old man's nose

Makin' believe he was evil

Struttin' in his mama's clothes.



So you know that Eddie had a bad connection, baby

Never had a chance to ball

Sleepin' in the wrong direction, baby

Dreamin' he was ten feet tall.



Eddie the Eunuch is a rock and roll critic

Suckin' like a super star

Slicker than a shoe-shine, quicker than a two-time

Eddie, what a thing you are.



--- Instrumental ---



Eddie makes a damn good livin', baby

Puttin' other people down

Eddie couldn't ever forgive them, baby

'cause he wasn't Jackson Browne.



Eddie the Eunuch is a rock and roll critic

Suckin' like a super star

Slicker than a shoe-shine, quicker than a two-time

Eddie, what a thing you are...
