Lyrics

Hot Charlie

Hot Charlie
Was a crazy dude
He liked spicy pizza
With baby food
He could be sophisticated
And he could be crude
But Hot Charlie
Had an attitude

He had an attitude
It got him through his day
He had an attitude
He could make people
See things his way

Hot Charlie doesn?t
Take a bath
He lives underneath
The overpass
He?s kind of down and dirty
With a touch of class
But Hot Charlie
Likes to hear that jazz

He had an attitude
It got him through his day
He had an attitude
He could make people
See things his way

Hot Charlie used to
Play some pool
He was a killer shark
Every day after school
He might have been broke
But he was nobody?s fool
Hot Charlie was
The king of cool

He had an attitude
It got him through his day
He had an attitude
He could make people
See things his way
