Don’t come around here no more
Don’t come around here no more
Whatever you’re looking for
HEY! Don’t come around here no more
Missed the Saturday dance
Hear they crowded the floor
Couldn’t bear it without you
Don’t get around much anymore
Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town
As long as I can dream it’s hard to slow this swinger down
So please don’t give a thought to me, I’m really doin’ fine
You can always find me here, I’m havin’ quite a time
Countin’ flowers on the wall
That don’t bother me at all
Playin’ solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one
Smokin’ cigarettes and watchin’ Captain Kangaroo
Now don’t tell me I’ve nothin’ to do
I’m getting around, yeah
I’m getting around
Fom town to town
I’m getting a cool head around round I get around)
I’m makin 'real good bread
I’m gettin 'bugged driving up and down the same old strip
I gotta find a new place where the kids are hip
My buddies and me are getting real wellknown
Yeah, the bad guys know us and leave us alone They
I get around (get around round round I get around)
From town to town (get around round round I get around)
I’m a real cool head (get around round round I get around)
I’m makin 'real good bread ( get around round round I get around)
Yeah, I should have known it from the very start
This girl will leave me with a broken heart
Now listen people what I’m telling you
Ah, keep away from a Runaround Sue, yeah
I’ll be the roundabout
The words will make you out ‘n’ out
I spend the day your way
Call it morning driving through the sound and
In and out the valley
Well, I knew that snake was my own sweet dad
From a worn-out picture that my mother’d had
And I knew that scar on his cheek and his evil eye
He was big and bent and gray and old
And I looked at him and my blood ran cold
And I said: “My name is ‘Sue!’ How do you do!?
Now you gonna die!”
Love is like oxygen
You get too much you get too high
Not enough and you’re gonna die
Love gets you high
Some folks just have one,
Yeah, others they got none
Stay with me
Let’s just breathe…
You say yer life’s a bum deal
'N yer up against the wall…
Well, people, you ain’t even got no
Deal at all
‘Cause what they do
In Washington
They just takes care
of NUMBER ONE
An’ NUMBER ONE ain’t YOU
You ain’t even NUMBER TWO
I don’t want to theorise it
Just hope people realise
The simple melody can free your soul
And let you be a man what you are
And fly la, la, la
But every back street slum where pushers push and hookers hook
Just won’t set you free with ha ah
Ooh, it’s not the way we want it
Not the way at all
Not the way to change our minds
Our backs up against the wall
Oh, give me the beat boys,
And free my soul,
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away…
Well, I don’t care about history,
Rock, rock, rock ‘n’ roll high school,
'Cause that’s not where I wanna be,
Rock, rock, rock ‘n’ roll high school,
I just wanna have some kicks,
I just wanna get some chicks,
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock ‘n’ roll high school.
Wake up ev’ry morning,
So much stuff to learn.
Histories of this and that,
Latin verbs and habitat,
Principles of bacon fat.
The time
Flies by.
It’s another day.
It’s just another day
At Enrico Fermi High.
It’s just another day…
Wake up ev’ry morning.
Get those wheels to turn.
Strategies from foreign wars,
Algebra and baseball scores,
Pi-r-squared,
And two-by-fours.
The hours
Roll by.
It’s another day.
It’s just another day
At Enrico Fermi High.
Every day she takes her morning bath, she wets her hair
Wraps a towel around her as she’s headed for the bedroom chair
It’s just another day
Splish splash I was taking bath
'Long about a Saturday night…
Gonna keep on dancing,
To the rock and roll,
On Saturday night, Saturday night.
Dancin’ to the rhythm,
In our heart and soul,
On Saturday night, Saturday night.
f you’re a stranger here
And you need some action
We have a remedy
That could really catch on
Pleased to see another face
At light-up time
If you’re feeling dull and run-down
We can really make you shine.
Dancing in the city
Alleys that we run through
Now we’ve just begun to
Have fun tonight.
Dancin’ in the city, …
Well, we all fall in love
But we disregard the danger
Though we share so many secrets
There are some we never tell
Why were you so surprised
That you never saw the stranger
Did you ever let your lover
See the stranger in yourself
Goodbye stranger it’s been nice
Hope you find your paradise
Tried to see your point of view
Hope your dreams will all come true
Goodbye Mary, goodbye Jane
Will we ever meet again
Feel no sorrow, feel no shame
Come tomorrow, feel no pain
