The Nicest Kids in Town
[CORNY, spoken]
Hey there, teenage Baltimore! Don't change that dial, 'cause it's time for The Corny Collins Show, brought to you by Ultra Clutch Hairspray! Hair so strong, it even holds up in a NASA wind tunnel!
[CORNY (COUNCIL MEMBERS)]
Oh, every afternoon when the clock strikes four
(Bop bee bop, ba ba ba ba ba, bee bop)
A crazy bunch of kids crash through that door, yeah
(Bop bee bop, ba ba ba ba ba, bee bop)
[CORNY & ALL]
They throw off their coats and leave the squares behind
And then they shake it, shake it, shake it, like they're losing their mind
You'll never see them frown
Cause they're the nicest kids in town
[CORNY (COUNCIL MEMBERS)]
Oh, every afternoon you turn your TV on
(Na, na na na na, na na na na)
And we know you turn the sound up when your parents are gone, yeah
(Na, na na na na, na na na na)
[CORNY & ALL]
Then you twist and shout for your favorite star
And when you've practiced every step that's in your repertoire
You better come on down
And meet the nicest kids in town
