Lyrics

Well, she got her daddy's car And she cruised through the hamburger stand now Seems she forgot all about the library Like she told her old man now And with the radio blasting goes cruising Just as fast as she can now And she'll have fun, fun, fun Till her daddy takes the T-bird away Fun, fun, fun Till her daddy takes the T-bird away Well, you knew all along that your dad Was getting wise to you now (Shouldn't have lied now, shouldn't have lied) And since he took your set of keys you've been Thinking that your fun is all through now (Shouldn't have lied now, you shouldn't have lied) But you can come along with me 'causе we Got a lot of things to do now And we'll have fun, fun, fun Now that Daddy took thе T-bird away Fun, fun, fun Now that Daddy took the T-bird away Fun, fun Now that Daddy took the T-bird away Fun, fun Now that Daddy took the T-bird away Hey, [?], it's 53 degrees and thirteen minutes past the big boss hour, and where were you when this song was number one? Why does the sun go on shining? Why does the sea rush to shore? Don't they know it's the end of the world? Cause you don't love me anymore Why do the birds go on singing? Why do the stars glow above? Don't they know it's the end of the world? It ended when I lost your love I wake up in the morning and I wonder Why everything's the same as it was I can't understand No, I can't understand How life goes on the way it does Why does my heart go on beating? Why do these eyes of mine cry? Don't they know it's the end of the world? It ended when you said goodbye Don't they know it's the end of the world? It ended when you said goodbye Ah, what memories, what memories, from nineteen-hundred-and-sixty-three! Later that same year this golden goodie blast from the past was introduced by The Crystals! I met him on a Monday and my heart stood still Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Somebody told me that his name was Bill Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Yeah, my heart stood still Yeah, his name was Bill And when he walked me home Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Yeah, he looked so fine Yeah, I'll make him mine And when he walked me home Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Yeah da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Yeah da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron What a sound, but right now, we're gonna give you another clue in our "Guess The Golden Goodies Group" contest! So now, let's listen closely to the mystery voices in clue number ten! [Unintelligible voices] Great, I'll take call number eight, as the revving of engines and screeching of tires brings us back to "Dead Man's Curve"! The street was deserted late Friday night We were bugging each other while we sat out the light We both popped our clutch when the light turned green You should have heard the whine from my screaming machine I flew past La Bream down to Crescent Heights And all the Jag could see were my six taillights He passed me at Doheny and I started to swerve But I pulled it out and there we were, at Deadman's curve Deadman's Curve is no place to play Deadman's Curve Well, the last thing I remember, Doc., I started to swerve And then I saw the Jag slide into the curve I know I'll never forget that horrible sight I found out for myself that everyone was right: Won't come back from Deadman's Curve Deadman's Curve is no place to play Deadman's Curve, you best keep away Deadman's Curve, I can hear them say You won't come back from Deadman's Curve Johnny Angel, Johnny Angel Johnny Angel, Johnny Angel You're an angel to me Johnny Angel, how I love him How I tingle when he passes by Every time he says hello My heart begins to fly Johnny Angel, how I want him He's got something that I can't resist But he doesn't even know that I exist I'm in heaven I get carried away I dream of him and me And how it's going to be Other fellows Call me up for a date But I just sit and wait I'd rather concentrate On Johnny Angel 'cause I love him And I pray that someday he'll love me And together we will see How lovely heaven will be And together we will see How lovely heaven will be They say that you're a run-around lover Though you say it isn't so But if you put me down for another I'll know, believe me, I'll know 'Cause the night has a thousand eyes And a thousand eyes can't help but see If you aren't true to me So remember when you tell those little white lies That the night has a thousand eyes One of these days you're going to be sorry 'Cause your game I'm going to play And you'll find out without really trying Each time that my kisses stray That the night has a thousand eyes And a thousand eyes will see me through And no matter what I do I could never disguise all those little white lies 'Cause the night has a thousand eyes So remember when you tell those little white lies That the night has a thousand eyes That was "The Night Has A Thousand Eyes", one of Bobby Vee's biggest hits! Alright, right now I've got Mark Rudolph of Hollywood, California on the line. Mark, are you there? Yeah... Mark Rudolph, for 1,000 dollars, can you give me the identity of our Golden Mystery Group? ...Mark, are you there? Yeah, The Four Seasons Mark Rudolph, would you repeat your answer, please? The Four Seasons? Mark Rudolph... you are WRONG! Boy! Our day will come And we'll have everything We'll share the joy Falling in love can bring No one can tell me That I'm too young to know (young to know) I love you so (love you so) And you love me Our day will come If we just wait a while No tears for us Think love and wear a smile Our dreams have magic Because we'll always stay In love this way Our day will come Our day will come Our day will come Fantastic, and you know we hope you'll always be digging those totally terrific top-ten tunes, as the hits just keep on coming! One fine day, you'll look at me And you'll know our love was meant to be One fine day, you're going to want me for your girl Oh yeah Your arms I long for will open wide And you'll be proud to have me right by your side One fine day, you're going to want me for your girl One fine day, you're going to want me for your girl, oh One fine day, oh yeah One fine day, oh yeah One fine day, oh yeah One fine day, oh yeah One fine day, oh yeah
