Kissing In The Back Row Of The Movies

by Greenaway/Macauley

*Bring yourself back to the good old days that you never knew. Where you would wear penny loafers and poodle skirts. Drive in movies with the top down was where you could find all the couples on a Saturday night. Where like in the old Archie comics, a chocolate milkshake was shared by two. Where a girl waits next to the phone for a boy to call. Dresses are tailored made from a paper pattern.*

Your momma says that through the week
you can’t go out with me but when the weekend comes around
she knows where we will be
kissin’ in the backrow
of the movies on a saturday night with you
holding hands together you and I
holding hands together oh yeah
smooching in the backrow
of the movies on a saturday night with you
we could stay forever you and I
we could stay forever you and I
hugging and a kissin in the backrow of the movies
Every night I pick you up from school
’cause your my steady date
But from monday through to friday night
I leave you at the gate yeah
You know we can’t have to much fun
Till all your homeworks done
But when the weekend comes
She knows where we will be
kissin’ in the backrow
of the movies on a saturday night with you
holding hands together you and I
holding hands together oh yeah
smooching in the backrow
of the movies on a saturday night with you
we could stay forever you and I
we could stay forever you and I
ah ah hugging and a kissin in the backrow
of the movies
Sit alone at night and watch TV
But I still think of you
We share a joke or two yeah
You know they don’t knock on my door
After friday night for sure
cause when the weekend comes
they know just where I’ll be
yeah
kissin’ in the backrow
of the movies on a saturday night with you
holding hands together you and I
holding hands together oh yeah
smooching in the backrow
of the movies on a saturday night with you
we could stay forever you and I
we could stay forever you and I
ah ah hugging and a kissin in the backrow of the movies
yeah hugging and a kissin in the backrow of the movies

Do you know the way to San Jose?

*Do you know who Burt Bacharach is? Do you know that he wrote all the fabulous songs? If you ask which fabulous songs, then you do not know who he is.*

Sung by the equally fabulous Dionne Warwick.

Do you know the way to San Jose?
I’ve been away so long. I may go wrong and lose my way.
Do you know the way to San Jose?
I’m going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose.
L.A. is a great big freeway.
Put a hundred down and buy a car.
In a week, maybe two, they’ll make you a star
Weeks turn into years. How quck they pass
And all the stars that never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas
Do you know the way to San Jose?
They’ve got a lot of sapce.There’ll be a place where I can stay
I was born and raised in San Jose
I’m going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose.
Fame and fortune is a magnet.
It can pull you far away from home
With a dream in your heart you’re never alone.
Dreams turn into dust and blow away
And there you are without a friend
You pack your car and ride away
I’ve got lots of friends in San Jose
Do you know the way to San Jose?
Can’t wait to get back to San Jose.

*I am my best friend because I can romance myself the best.*

The stars won’t come out if they know that you’re about
Cause they couldn’t match the glow of your eyes
And, oh, who am I ? Just an ordinary guy
Tryin hard to win me first prize

Oh my Candida
We could make it together
The further from here girl the better
Where the air is fresh and clean
Oh my Candida
Just take my hand and I’ll lead ya
I promise that life will be sweeter
‘Cause it said so in my dreams

The future looks bright, the gypsy told me so last night
Said she saw our children playing in the sunshine
And there were you and I in a house, baby, no lie
And all these things were yours, and they were mine

Oh my Candida
We could make it together
The further from here girl the better
Where the air is fresh and clean
Oh my Candida
Just take my hand and I’ll lead ya
I promise that life will be sweeter
