Bang-Shang-A-Lang
(Jeff Barry, 1968)


I recall just walkin' down the street
tryin' to escape the city heat
I saw her from the corner of my eye, eye, eye
Yeah, she looked so good, I thought I'd die

My heart went bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang-bang-bang

My heart went bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang-bang-bang

Somethin' said I shouldn't waste no time
If I'm ever gonna make her mine
I walked right up and said "how do you do, do, do?"
she said "I bet I do as good as you"

My heart went bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang-bang-bang
(2X)

I remember when I held her tight
(Bang-shang-a-lang)
felt like holdin' dynamite now
(Bang-shang-a-lang)
what's that ringin' in my ear?
(Bang-shang-a-lang)
tell me ain't those bells I hear!
(Bang-shang-a-lang)

Bang bang!
Shang-a-lang
Bang bang!
Shang-a-lang

Bang bang bang!
Shang a lang a lang
Bang bang bang!
Shang a lang a lang

Now she's gonna spend her life with me
and we'll be as happy as can be
of course I love her more than I can tell, tell, tell
sunday afternoon we'll hear the bells
And they'll go...

Bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang-bang-bang

Oh they'll go...

Bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang-bang-bang

Everything's Archie

Everything's Archie!

Archie's here.
Betty's here, Veronica too
Reggie's here
Hey, Jughead, where are you?

We wanna dance,
And we wanna sing,
Have some fun and go adventuring.
All our friends are here,
But it ain't complete,
We ain't the Archies,
Without that Jughead beat.

Wohhhhhh

Archie's here.
Betty's here, Veronica too.
Reggie's here.
And here comes Jughead and Hot Dog, too.
(2X)

So everything's Archie!

A Time For Love

Sunshine, shining brightly,
clouds are smiling up above.
My heart, is singing lightly:
time, time, time for love.
My mind, is barely working,
all the things I'm dreaming of,
my heart's a clock tock ticking,
time, time, time, for love.

Oh, oh,
yesterday I was sad,
(so sad)
everything looked so bad,
every hour was pretty blue,
till' the minute, I met you.

Now,
(now)
the day's worth spending,
we're together hand in glove,
we've got never ending
time, time, time, time, time,
for love.

Bicycles, Rollerskates and You
(Barkan/Adams)


Bicycles, rollerskates and you my baby (my baby)
Bicycles, rollerskates and you
doo doo doo doo
doo doo doo doo

Ev'ry day I wake up with a happy smile on my face
'Cause I'm so glad to be a member of the human race
I ain't got a dime, but I'm the richest guy you'll ever find
'Cause I got...

Bicycles, rollerskates and you my baby (my baby)
Bicycles, rollerskates and you
doo doo doo doo
doo doo doo doo

The sweet and simple things in life are all that I need
You showed me how with love and now I just follow your lead
Now I'm so aware that nothing in the whole world can compare to-hoo-hoo...

Bicycles, rollerskates and you my baby (my baby)
Bicycles, rollerskates and you
doo doo doo doo

Holdin' hands while ridin' through the park
Rolling past all troubles, life's a lark
'Cause I've got...

Inside Out - Upside Down
(Barry/Kim)


Lovin' you has got me upside down
Lovin' you has got me inside out
Upside down - inside out

Ev'rytime I see you I feel so weak
Ev'rytime we kiss it's the same
My tongue kissed tied and I just can't speak
I can only whisper your name

Lovin' you has got me upside down
Lovin' you has got me inside out
Upside down - inside out

`Girl you drive me crazy I just can't eat
Nothing ever seems to be right
Night time comes and I just can't sleep
Tossin' and a turnin' all night

Since I started lovin' you baby
There's one thing that I want you to know
Little by little you're drivin' me crazy
Little by little you're oh ho ho ho!

Lovin' you has got me upside down
Lovin' you has got me inside out
Upside down - inside out

Where did you come from?
Who do I thank for feelin' the way that I do?
The time before I met you is totally blank
My whole life started with you

Lovin' you has got me upside down
Lovin' you has got me inside out
Upside down - inside out
