lyrics

There stood in the hall Brian Wilson / with a toy piano and a Gibson
with the tympani ringing and the Ronettes singing "Be My baby"

Leiber and Stoller were writing / with the chief of the label presiding
The Brill Building shook and then echo’d as Spector arrived

The Every Brothers were signing / contracts early one morning
Baudelaire and Felice were among those whose songs would be tried

Drums keep pounding in the back of the room / the bass keeps booming off the side of the moon

Then Elvis took to the center / not even a hound dog could enter
On one had Chuck Berry the other John Lennon just smiled

Dion was snapping his fingers / Imperial’s Rick Nelson fever
The five Satin’s “Still of the Night” it’s still number one

At Colony Records on Broadway / the A sides were rocking on payday
Neil Sadaka, Neil Diamond, Paul Anka, Del Shannon alive

Hear the Angels singing in the Stratosphere / the last little bit of a lonely prayer

Buddy Holly had beautiful vision / Doc Pomus wrote songs of Suspicion
Gene Chandler’s the Duke of Earl and Gene Vincent’s the jester

All of it rocking on bandstand / the thrill of romance so grand
Skirts that sway and guys that say it all true

At the corner Streetlight Boys would sing / every song would pull your heartstrings
See the singer’s teary eyes / makes you glad you feel alive
