lirik lagu dan nicholson - frankie's gangster girl
[spoken:] “remember, the saddest thing in life is wasted talent ”
[verse 1]
in the fort
by the bay on the ridge
up in the ivory tower
she mixed the tragic potion
with the magic powder
that i never should’ve tried
but look
she got me hooked
so way back when
vera says before me
she ain’t never had a steady lover
part on account of her six older brothers
and her old man’s don of the block
adores his gangster girl
[verse 2]
her dad was kinda like a baritone tony soprano
we started talking when he heard me play piano
said i remind him of his younger self
an urban street kid who loves to sing
from that day on i knew he’s cool with me falling in love with echo
it kinda seemed she felt the same
she didn’t let much show
in the meantime
keep up the dreamtime
we kept orchestrating hits
and hoping one would k!ll ’em so
[chorus]
tell me how i’m getting so caught up in this?
loving trouble with a mafia princess
mafia princess
a sweet little gangster gal
she’s breaking every law of attraction
trafficking in true angel action
frankie’s sweet k!ller gangster girl
[verse 3]
all these little pr~cks give me the finger jealous
she’s initiating me
everything was good
save for the one brother who’s hating me
on his special night
his only wish was a fight
then echo sighed “leave them inside”
while frankie let ’em fly
me and her went to the park
not sure of what to say
til we returned and then we learned
he’d been sent on his way
frank said “had to be done
he should’ve pulled his gun
instead he spun the record no dj should ever play”
[chorus]
tell me why she pulls me right back into this
life of trouble with my mafia princess?
my mafia princess
my sweet little gangster gal
she’s breaking every law of attraction
trafficking in true angel action
frankie’s sweet k!ller gangster girl
[verse 4]
a few months later echo called and told me frankie died
last time she saw him was the time he gave us that ride
and then she cried
and said she doesn’t think she wants to sing no more
these days she only sings after the house has gone to bed
the little melody stuck in her head
quick, hide
before they see the tears in your eyes
[chorus]
so i take my guitar to the bar
drink til i’m blind
cause wasn’t wasted talent
always your favorite kind?
(wasted talent that was always our favorite kind)
my sweet little gangster gal
don’t tell me
i know what’s wrong
i know why you never wanna sing your pretty song
(but wasted talent was our destiny all along?)
you sweet little gangster gal
don’t tell me/ i know what’s wrong
my sweet little gangster girl
i know you think i left town and didn’t tell ya
was more like napoleon’s exile on elba baby
sweet little gangster girl
