G#7                      C#7                G#7
Ev'ry afternoon when the clock strikes four
                G#7
(bop bee ba, ba ba ba ba ba, bee ba)
  C#7                       C#7              G#7
A crazy bunch of kids crash through that door
                G#7
(bop bee ba, ba ba ba ba ba, bee ba)

     D#
They throw off their coats
              C#
And leave the squares behind
              D#
And then they shake it, shake it, shake it
             C#
Like they're losing their mind
             D#
You'll never see them frown
                   C#     B    C#/G#  G#7
'Cause they're the nicest kids in town

Every afternoon you turn your T.V. on
 A7                A7
(na, na, na, na, na, na na na na)
       D7
And we know you turn the sound up when your parents are gone, yeah!
 A7                A7
(na, na, na, na, na, na na na na)

             E
And then you twist and shout
         D
For your favorite star
                E
And once you've practiced every step
               D
That's in your repertoire
           E
You better come on down
             D      C    D/A  A7
And meet the nicest kids in town

(mony mony, ah ooh, mony mony)
        E7                                      B7
And the bass and drums are pounding in your head

Who cares about sleep when you can

snooze in school?
F       F#7
They'll never get to college
         E7
But they sure look cool
