Saturday morning serials chapters 1 through 15,
Fly paper, penny loafers, Lucky Strike Green.
Flat tops, sock hops, Studebaker, Pepsi Please,
Ahh, do you remember these?
Cigar Bands, on your hand, your daddy's socks rolled down.
Sticks, snow floats and aviator caps with flaps that button down.
Movie stars on Dixie Cup tops, and knickers to your knees,
Ahh, do you remember these?
The Hit Parade, grape Tru-Aid, The Sadie Hawkins Dance,
Pedal pushers, duck tail hair and peggin' your pants.
Howdie-Doodie, Tutti-Frutti, the seam up the back of her hose,
Ahh, do you remember those?
James Dean, he was keen, Sunday movies were taboo,
The Senior Prom, Judy's mom, Rock-n-Roll was new.
Cracker Jack prize, stars in your eyes, as Daddy tore the keys,
Ahh, do you remember these?
The boogey man, lemonade stands, takin' your tonsils out,
Hindenburg, -n- wait your turn, and 4 foul balls you're out.
Cigarette loads, -n- secret codes, -n- savin' lucky stars,
Can you remember back that far?
The boat neck shirts, and fender skirts and crinoline petticoats,
Mum's the word, and a dirty bird and a double root beer float.
Moon hub caps, and loud heel taps, and he's a real gone cat.
Ahh, do you remember that?
Dancin' close, little moron jokes, and cooties in her hair,
Captain Midnight, Ovaltine, and The Whip at the County Fair.
Charles Atlas Course, Roy Roger's Horse, and "only The Shadow knows"
Ahh, do you remember those?
Gable's charm, Frog in your arm, loud mufflers, pitchin' woo,
Going steady, Veronica and Betty, white bucks, and "Blue Suede Shoes"
Knock Knock jokes, and "Who's there?", Dewey, Dewey who?;
Do we, do we remember these? Yes, we do, Ahh do we do we remember these?
Randi Graff -- You Can Always Count On Me
Randi Graff (right) as Oolie in City of Angels
Lyrics
I'm one of a long line of good girls
Who choose the wrong guy to be sweet on
The girl with the face that's as welcome
That men can wipe their feet on
I'm there when he calls me the trusted Girl Friday all right
But what good does it do me alone on a Saturday night?
If you need a gal to go without salary and work too hard
You can always count on me
The kind of a pal who'd sneak you a file past the prison guard
Loyal to the nth degree
The boss is quite the lady's man and that's my biggest gripe
Till I showed up he'd never hire a girl cause she could type
I'm no femme fatale but faithful and true as a Saint Bernard
Barking up the wrong damn tree. You can always count on me
I don't need a map, I naturally head for the dead end street
You can always count on me
I'm caught in a trap when joy is approaching and I retreat
I'm at home with misery
I've been the Other Woman since my puberty began
I crashed the Junior Prom and met the only married man
I'm always on tap for romance or chocolate that's bittersweet
You can always count on me
A matter of fact if you want an ill-fated love affair
You can always count on me
Though I made a pact to carry out research before I care
Men don't give a warranty
One Joe who swore he's single got me sort of crocked. The beast!
I woke up only slightly shocked that I defrocked a priest
Or else I attract the guys who are longing to do my hair
You can always count on me
I go for the riff raff who's treating me so-so
When I can play the second fiddle I'm a virtuoso
I should be playing for a wedding band
But there's no wedding rings attached
Though you can bet there's strings attached
Though my kind of dame no doubt will die out like the dinosaurs
You can always count on me
I'm solely to blame, my head gives advice that my heart ignores
I'm my only enemy
I choose the kind who cannot introduce the girl he's with
There's lots of smirking motel clerks who call me "Mrs. Smith"
But I've made a name with hotel detectives who'll break down doors
Guess who they expect to see? You can always count on me

"The Ross Sisters were a trio of female sibling singing dancers consisting of Aggie Ross, Elmira Ross, and Maggie Ross (whose real names were Veda Victoria, Dixie Jewel and Betsy Ann Ross). The Ross Sisters performed as a 3-part harmony trio wherein they also danced and did acrobatics and contortionism."
