When My Boy Walks Down the Street

When My Boy Walks Down the Street.


Let me know if you have trouble downloading this song. It's a .wma file, and so sometimes I had trouble downloading it from the server. But I asked someone else, and she had no troubles whatsoever, so whatevah.

I posted some lyrics to this song as an away message, and the boyfriend was wondering who wrote them. And so I'm posting them. Such an easy post.

Grand pianos crash together
when my boy walks down the street.
There are whole new kinds of weather
when he walks with his new beat.
Everyone sings hallelujah
when my boy walks down the street.
Life just kind of dances through ya
from your smile down to your feet.

Amazing.
He's a whole new form of life,
blue eyes blazing,
and he's going to be my wife.

The world does the hula-hula
when my boy walks down the street.
Everyone thinks he's Petula,
so big and yet so petite.
Butterflies turn into people
when my boy walks down the street.
Maybe he should be illegal.
He just makes life too complete.

Oh, shadows of echoes of memories.
Oh, things that he brings that he found in the sea.
Oh, shadows of echoes of memories of songs.
Oh, how could he know that it won't be long.

Grand pianos crash together
when my boy walks down the street.
There are whole new kinds of weather
when he walks with his new beat.
Everyone sings hallelujah
when my boy walks down the street.
Life just kind of dances through ya
from your smile down to your feet.
Here lies a most ridiculous raw youth, indulging himself in the literary graces that he once vowed to eschew. Now he just rocks out.
