when i was young i’d listen to the radio
waiting for my favorite songs
when they played i’d sing along
it made me smile
pre
those were such happy times and not so long ago
how i wondered where they’d gone
but they’re back again just like a long lost friend
all the songs i loved so well
every shalalala every oho oho
still shines
every shingalingaling that they’re starting to sing’s
so fine
post
when they get to the part where he’s breaking her heart
it can really make me cry
just like before
it’s yesterday once more
shoobidoo wangdang
shoobidoo wangdang
looking back on how it was in years gone by
and the good times that i had
makes today seem rather sad
so much has changed
pre
it was songs of love that i would sing to them
and i’d memorize each word
those old melodies still sound so good to me
as they melt the years away
every shalalala every oho oho
still shines
every shingalingaling that they’re starting to sing’s
so fine
post
all my best memories come back clearly to me
some can even make me cry
just like before
it’s yesterday once more
shoobidoo wangdang
shoobidoo wangdang
every shalalala every oho oho
still shines
every shingalingaling that they’re starting to sing’s
so fine
every shalalala every oho oho
still shines
every shingalingaling that they’re starting to sing’s
so fine
