Here's Room 506 
It's enough to make you sick 
Bridget's all wrapped up in foil 
You wonder if she can uncoil
Here they come now 
See them run now 
Here they come now 
Chelsea Girls 

Here's Room 115 
Filled with S & M queens 
Magic marker row 
You wonder just high they go

Here they come now 
See them run now 
Here they come now 
Chelsea Girls 

Here's Pope dear Ondine 
Rona's treated him so mean 
She wants another scene 
She wants to be a human being

Here they come now 
See them run now 
Here they come now 
Chelsea Girls 

Pepper she's having fun 
She thinks she's some man's son 
Her perfect love's don't last 
Her future died in someone's past

Here they come now 
See them run now 
Here they come now 
Chelsea Girls 

Dear Ingrid's found her lick 
She's turned another trick 
Her treats and times revolve 
She's got problems to be solved 

Here they come now 
See them run now 
Here they come now 
Chelsea Girls 

Poor Mary, she's uptight 
She can't turn out her light 
She rolled Susan in a ball 
And now she can't see her at all 

Here they come now 
See them run now 
Here they come now 
Chelsea Girls 

Dropout, she's in a fix
Amphetamine has made her sick 
White powder in the air 
She's got no bones and can't be scared 

Here they come now 
See them run now 
Here they come now 
Chelsea Girls 

Here comes Johnny Bore
He collapsed on the floor 
They shot him up with milk 
And when he died sold him for silk 

Here they come now 
See them run now 
Here they come now 
Chelsea Girls 

Here they come now 
See them run now 
Here they come now 
Chelsea Girls
