In Praise Of Sha Na Na — текст песни (The Dead Milkmen)

Sha Na Na

Sha Na Na Na Na

Sha-Na-Na were the kings of Woodstock
You know it`s true deep in your heart
Greasy guys in gold lame
If only Hendrix had been so smart
Pete Townshend wouldn`t be so deaf
If he followed Sha-Na-Na`s advice
And played fifties do-wop songs that
Even your mom would think are nice

Keith and Janis went away
But Sha-Na-Na is here to stay
I don`t care `bout Joan Baez
Sha-Na-Na can wear my fez
(at least it rhymes)

Sha Na Na
Sha Na Na Na
Sha Na Na Na Na
Sha Na Na (x2)
Sha Na Na Na Na

Sha-Na-Na were the kings of the sixties
Deep in your heart you know it`s true
All those kids at Berkeley dressed like Bowser
They didn`t like the Stones or the Who
Sha-Na-Na didn`t need flower power
They didn`t drive a yellow submarine
Yet they were the guys who called the shots
Sha-Na-Na really made the scene

Keith and Janis went away (so long)
But Sha-Na-Na is here to stay
I don`t care `bout Joan Baez
Sha-Na-Na can wear my fez
(once again it rhymes)

Sha Na Na
Sha Na Na Na
Sha Na Na Na Na
Sha Na Na (x2)
Sha Na Na Na Na

Sha-Na-Na... shot Kennedy
Sha-Na-Na... stabbed that guy at Altamont
Sha-Na-Na... started the Peace Corps
Sha-Na-Na... were the first Astronauts
Sha-Na-Na... joined the Black Panthers
Sha-Na-Na... led student sit-ins
Sha-Na-Na... grew organic food
Sha-Na-Na... just never fit in

You can move to Montana and listen to Santana
But you still won`t be as cool as Sha-Na-Na

Sha Na Na
Sha Na Na Na
Sha Na Na Na Na
Sha Na Na (x2)
Sha Na Na Na Na
(x2)
Sha Na Na Na Na (x2)
