Thread Name: Lyr Req: Pink Shoelaces (and other novelty songs)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Tan Shoes and Pink Shoelaces. Verses?
Funny, but I put both "Norman" and "Tan Shoes..." on a mix CD of whacked out old pop tunes, along with "Johnny, Get Angry"--"Norman" proved that rock n roll with a polka beat and trombone block chords was not a viable concept--"Johnny" has that kazoo hook, and the girl narrator is one of the more twisted characters-

"Johnny get angry, Johnny get mad,
give me the biggest lecture I ever had,
I want a brave man, I want a cave man,
Johnny show me that you care, really care for me"
