Joshua Noveck

Lyrics

[Spoken] Okay so it was a few months ago and they were having auditions for the big show okay? I'm not really into theater or anything but sometimes there are more important considerations [Verse 1] There's this cute guy, okay? He's a senior You know who I'm talking about And when they announced Bye Bye Birdie I heard he was gonna try out So I run down to catch the auditions And my hair was like really—oh yuck! But when they called out Jane Smolyen (that's me, Janie Smolyen) This guy comes and kisses me good luck [Chorus 1] Joshua Noveck kissed me today in the waiting room at the school auditorium Joshua Noveck kissed me today and I practically died on the floor On the cheek on the left on the chair near the desky by the door Joshua Noveck kissed me today like I've never been kissed before [Spoken] I was chewing gum and everything! I mean is that amazing or what? Me, a lowly sophomore! Not only that, I got into the show! Not a big part or anything but I did get to be onstage with you-know-who! [Verse 2] Older girls try to get his attention but it's me he sat with on the train Still I said to myself "He's a senior! I mean you're just dreaming now Jane" In the play we had one scene together where he grabs me and kisses me and stuff Then once he said at rehearsal: "We need more rehearsal…I don't think we did that kiss enough!" [Chorus 2] Joshua Noveck kissed me today in a cubible of the middle school library Joshua Noveck kissed me today at the back of the nonfiction floor I said "Gosh!" I said "Josh!" I said "Shouldn't we practice once more?" Joshua Noveck kissed me today like I've never been kissed before [Bridge] I don't care if Sue Melons is smirking I don't care if Jill Rosenblatt is cursing I don't care if Beth Belle is exceedingly jealous as long as Josh wants to keep rehearsing [Spoken] Anyway it's the night of the big play and I can hardly get through the show waiting for the big moment… [Verse 3] And suddenly it's our big moment He's out there and shaking his hips I'm nervous, I feel my heart racing He's facing me, flexing his lips Then I look out and see my brat brother And my parents and teachers watching this And I turn to Josh Noveck I look at Josh Noveck And fall in his arms and I…laugh! [Spoken] Right on stage, in his face! In front of everyone, and I couldn't stop! Then everyone onstage started laughing and the audience and my parents and my teachers and even my brat brother. I couldn't even look at Josh. And he leans forward and tries to kiss me but…it doesn't really come close [Chorus 3] Joshua Noveck kissed me today on the side of my arm It was really embarrassing Joshua Noveck kissed me today and I wanted to crawl through the floor It was awful…worse than awful! And I think that Josh really got sore Joshua Noveck kissed me today like I've never been kissed before [Spoken] So it's after the play and I'm trying to like leave the country, I feel so completely dumb, when this really cute junior guy who played the trombone in the orchestra comes over to me and says "You were the greatest! That was the funniest thing I ever saw!" and he leans over and kisses me…right on the forehead!!! I couldn't believe it!!!! WHAT A DAY!!!! [Sung] Arnold Mancuda kissed me today like I've never been kissed before!!!
