These are the words I found on the internet...what are they leaving out?
Rickie Lee Jones Chuck E's in love lyrics
How come he don't come and p.i.p. with me
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 stutter 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

I think the song writer and the singer..... suck. RLJ must just love that weasel clinton.

...what are they leaving out? There is a spoken aside (yes, she never really sings, but this part is completely spoken) in the middle of the song where she says "the little nigger boy". I remember it distinctly becuase it turned me off severely at the time (over 20 years ago). It wasn't the insult or the crassness so much as it was her too too cool, so cool she wasn't white any more, attitude. The only surprise to me in this article is that she's still alive. I would expect her to abuse alcohol and drugs, I would expect her to have a child without a family, I would expect her to hate her own country, I would expect her to hate George W. Bush ...

It most certainly says little ni***er boy about halfway through the song. It is half spoken-half sung and may not show up in the published lyrics but is in the song.
