(+) The Nicest Kids in Town
Hey there teenage Baltimore
Don't change that channel
Cause it's time for the Corny Collins Show
Brought to you by Ultra Clutch Hairspray
Oh every afternoon
When the clock strikes four
(Bop bee bop ba ba ba ba ba bee bop)
A crazy bunch of kids crash through
That door yeah
(Bop bee bop ba ba ba ba ba bee bop)
They throw off their coats
And leave the squares behind
And then they shake it shake it shake it
Like they're losing their mind
You'll never see them frown
Cause they're the nicest kids in town
Oh every afternoon you turn your TV on
(Na na na na na na na na na)
Yeah we know you turn the sound up
When your parents are gone yeah
(Na na na na na na na na na)
Then you twist
And shout for your favorite star
And when you've practiced every step
That's in your repertoire
You better come on down
And meet the nicest kids in town
Nice white kids who like to lead the way
And once a month
We have our Negro Day
And I'm the man
Who keeps it spinning round
Mr Corny Collins with the latest
Greatest Baltimore sound
So every afternoon drop everything
(Bop bee bop ba ba ba ba ba bee bop)
Who needs to read and write
When you can dance and sing?
(Bop bee bop ba ba ba ba ba bee bop)
Forget about your Algebra and Calculus
You can always do your homework
On the morning bus
Can't tell a verb from a noun
They're the nicest kids in town
R R R Roll call
I'm Amber Brad
Tammy Fender Brenda Sketch
Shelly IQ Lou Ann Joey
Mikey Vicki Becky Bix Jessie Darla
Pauly Noreen Doreen
And I'm Link
So if every night you're shaking
As you lie in bed
(Pony pony ooh pony pony)
Shake it baby
And the bass and drums are
Pounding in your head
(Pony pony ooh pony pony)
Who cares about sleep
When you can snooze in school?
They'll never get to college
But they'll sure look cool
Don't need a cap or a gown
When you're the nicest kids in town
They're the nicest nicest
They're the nicest nicest
Well they're the sugar 'n' spice est
Nicest kids in kids in town woo
