B - Side Baby
"Good morning there listeners, and here we are in a sunny Soho on a Thursday morning.  It's 12:22 and I think...Who's that coming to the studio right now?  My God, it looks like...It's not like...Looks like Marco!  Oh my God!  It is Marco!  You ready Marco? (Yeah!)  Who's that next to you?  Chris DeNiro?!  You ready Chris? (Yay!)  Count Wiczling, you ready? (Ready!)  Well I'm ready!...."
A-one, two, a-buckle my shoe!

My baby says I mistreat her.
I don't know about that.
I only know when I beat her,
She likes to call me a ...

She keeps on playing those B-side records,
All day long in the flat.
"They're a little bit obscure" she says.
I call her a ...

B-side baby,
And that's that.
She's just a B-side baby,
And that's a fact.
Ooh!

I think "Punk" is an overused word.
As a matter of fact,
I hate Joey Ramone when he says,

He's going to find himself d-down an alley,
With his face beaten flat.
And a spray job in bright pink letters, saying,
B-R-A-T spells

B-side baby,
And that's that.
A B-side baby,
And that's a fact.
Ooh, put it in my ear!

B-side baby,
And that's that.
She's just a B-side baby,
And that's a fact.
Away!

My baby says I mistreat her.
I don't know about that.
I only know when I beat her,
She likes to call me a ...

She keeps on playing those B-side records,
All day long in the flat.
"They're a little bit obscure" she says.
I call her a ...

B-side baby,
And that's that.
A B-side baby,
And that's a fact.
Ooh, put it in my ear!

A B-side baby,
And that's that.
She's just a B-side baby,
And that's a fact. 
It is, it is, it is

Alternate live version verse would be:
You gonna get ya an ulcer,
From you laying 'round on your back.
And if I see you with that boy,
I'm gonna tie you up.
