========================
AT DAYDREAM JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL
WE USE TO HARMONIZE
ME AND FRANKIE AND JIMMY
AND SOME ITALIAN GUY
WE WERE SINGING OLDIES
BUT THEY WERE NEWIES THEN
AND TODAY WHEN I PLAY
MY OLD 45'S I REMEMBER WHEN
WE PRACTICED IN A SUBWAY
IN A LOBBY OR A HALL
CROWDED IN A DOORWAY
SINGING DOO-WOPS TO THE WALL
AND IF WE WENT TO A PARTY
AND THEY WOULDN'T LET US SING
WE'D LOCK OURSELVES IN THE BATHROOM
AND NOBODY COULD GET IN
'CAUSE WE WERE LOOKING FOR AN ECHO
AN ANSWER TO OUR SOUND
A PLACE TO BE IN HARMONY
A PLACE WE ALMOST FOUND
AND THE GIRLS WOULD GATHER 'ROUND US
AND OUR HEADS WOULD REALLY SWELL
WE'D SING SONGS BY THE MOONGLOWS
THE HARPTONES AND THE DELLS
AND WHEN WE SANG "SINCERELY"
WE REALLY SANG IT HIGH
EVEN THOUGH IT WAS FALSETTO
WE ALMOST REACHED THE SKY
WE'VE SUNG A LOT CHANGES
SINCE 1955
AND A LOT OF BAD ARRANGEMENTS
WE'VE TRIED TO HARMONISE
NOW WE'VE TURNED INTO OLDIES
BUT WE WERE NEWIES THEN
AND TODAY WHEN I PLAY MY OLD 45'S
I REMEMBER WHEN
WE WERE LOOKING FOR AN ECHO
AN ANSWER TO OUR SOUND
A PLACE TO BE IN HARMONY
A PLACE WE ALMOST FOUND
WE WERE LOOKING FOR AN ECHO
AN ANSWER TO OUR SOUND
A PLACE TO BE IN HARMONY
A PLACE WE ALMOST FOUND
