Surfin' Bird

We're gonna try to talk The Trashmen into Surfin' Bird
One of the -, well, that was the first big record for the Trashmen
And, as matter of fact, when we had the chance to work with them
About a month ago, we were comparing magic twangers
When we had a little celebration party
When they sold over five hundred thousand, the first five hundred thousand
But The Trashmen have two records to bring you up to date
On what's happening with them right now
"Keep Your Hands Off My Baby" and "Surfin' Bird '65"

As you probably wanna stop by and pick up in your store
They have just returned from a real successful tour in Canada
But we'd like to have, about four girls
Volunteer for kind of a discotheque thing-a-ring
We've got four girls, that wanna volunteer to get up on the stage
And do the a go-go things during Surfin' Bird?
Do you wanna volunteer one of your girlfriends?
Who wants to vo-, a guy wants to volunteer?
No, I'm sorry, it has to be a girl

Okay, we have two girls here, go over to the end of the stage
All you have to do around is movin' around
Hey, we've got some mamas here
Okay, girls, if you wanna -
Like, maybe somebody down here by the piano
Just so we don't get in the guys' way, 'cause this -
This is a pretty emotional song
Ladies and gentlemen, The Trashmen and "Surfin' Bird"!

A-well-a everybody's heard about the bird

B-b-b-bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, well, the bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, bird is the word

A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird's the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word

A-well-a, don't you know about the bird?
Well, everybody's talking about the bird
A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird's the word, a-well-a

A-well-a everybody's heard about the bird

B-b-b-bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, well, the bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird is the word
A-well-a bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word

A-well-a bird, bird, bird is the word

Well, everybody's talking about the bird
A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird's the word, a-well-a bird

What you gon' do now, uh?
We're not used to dressing up when we work
So I ain't gonna loosen up my straps here and so forth
I think we have a pretty good crowd outside the windows here, too
Poor pennyless people
Alright, well, none of that
If you can dance to this

She did it
You should've seen it from back here, it was really good
Alright
A-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Here I go again

A-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba
Ooma mow mow, ba-ba ooma mow mow

Ba-ba-ba ooma mow mow, ba-ba ooma mow mow
Ooma mow mow, ba-ba ooma mow mow
Ba-ba ooma mow mow, ooma mow mow
Ba-ba ooma, ooma, ooma, ooma, ooma mow mow
Ba-ba ooma, ooma, ooma, ooma, ooma mow mow

Ooma mow mow, ba-ba ooma mow mow
Ba-ba ooma mow mow, ooma mow mow
Ba-ba ooma mow mow, ooma mow mow
Ba-ba ooma mow mow, ooma mow mow
Ba-ba ooma mow mow, ooma mow mow
Ba-ba ooma mow mow, ooma mow mow

A-well-a, don't you know about the bird?
Well, everybody knows that the bird is the word
A-ba-ba ooma mow mow, ooma mow mow
Ba-ba ooma mow mow, ba-ba, surfin' bird!

Thank you, very, very much
And girls, I can't even say anything to you
Put a tremendous job, eh?
Let's have a nice round of applause for The Trashmen
They worked for it

Okay, it's a break time
But they'll be right back in about five minutes
Have three records left over, for the -
Some of the three best looking gentlemen in the house
Trashmen will be right back
They'll be here until midnight tonight
Next friday night, The Feebles
