Lyrics

Corny: 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!

Corny with The Corny Collins
Show Members: Ev'ry afternoon
When the clock strikes four
(bop-bee-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba, bee-ba)


Corny with The Corny Collins
Show Members:A crazy bunch of kids
Crash through that door
(bop-bee-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba, bee-ba)


Corny with The Corny Collins
Show Members: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


Corny with The Corny Collins
Show Members: Every afternoon
You turn your T.V. on
(na, na, na, na, na, na-na-na-na)


Corny with The Corny Collins
Show Member: And we know you
turn the sound up. When your parents
are gone, yeah (na, na, na, na,
na, na-na-na-na)


Corny: And then you twist and shout
For your favorite star
And once you've practiced every step
That's in your repertoire
You better come on down
And meet the nicest kids in town


Corny: 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 spinnin' round
Mr. Corny Collins
Corny: With the latest, greatest Baltimore sound!!


Corny with The Corny Collins
Show Members: So every afternoon
Drop everything
(bop-bee-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba, bee-ba)


Corny with The Corny Collins Show Members:
Who needs to read and write
When you can dance and sing?
(bop-bee-ba, ba-ba-ba-ba, bee-ba)


Corny:
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


Corny:
Roll Call!!

Corny with The Corny Collins Show Members:
So, if every night you're shaking
As you lie in bed
(mony-mony, ooh, mony-mony)


Corny with The Corny Collins Show Members:
And the bass and drums
Are pounding in your head
(mony-mony, ooh, mony-mony)
Who cares about sleep
When you can snooze in
School?


Corny with The Corny Collins Show Members:
They'll never get to college
But they sure look cool
Don't need a cap and a gown
'Cause they're the nicest
Kids in town


The Corny Collins Show Members:
They're the nicest. Nicest
They're the nicest, nicest
They're the sugar 'n' spicest,
The nicest kids in...
Kids in town!
