All the Girls Love Alice (Live At Hammersmith Odeon, London/ 1973) Lyrics

This is a completely different story about a little girl, a 16 years old
And gets into trouble
And story goes something like this, about young girl Alice

Raised to be a lady by the golden rule
Alice was the spawn of a public school
With a double-barrel name in the back of her brain
A simple case of mummy-doesn't-love-me blues

Reality it seems, was just a dream
She couldn't get it on with the boys on the scene
But what do you expect from a chick who's just 16?
And hey, hey, hey... you know what I mean

All the young girls love Alice
"Tender young Alice", they say
Come over and seek me
Come over and please me
Alice, it's my turn today
All the young girls love Alice
"Tender young Alice", they say
If I give you my number
Will you promise to call me?
Wait 'til my husband's away
Alice

Poor little darling with a chip out of her heart
It's like acting in a movie when you got the wrong part
Getting your kicks in another girl's bed
And it was only last Tuesday
They found you in the subway dead

And who could you call, your friends down in Soho?
One or two middle-aged dykes at Go-Go
And what do you expect from a 16 year old yo-yo
And hey, hey, hey... oh, don't you know?

All the young girls love Alice
"Tender young Alice", they say
Come over and see me
Come over and please me
Alice, it's my turn today
All the young girls love Alice
"Tender young Alice", they say
If I give you my number
Will you promise to call me?
Wait 'til my husband's away
Alice

Alone

Alone, alone

Alone

Alone

Alone

Alice, Alice, oh

Oh
