Allan Sherman Shine On Harvey Bloom Lyrics

Shine On Harvey Bloom Lyrics

My name is Mr. Bloom and I'm from New Rochelle

And I sing this happy tune

Because my son, the astronaut, young Harvey Bloom

Has landed on the moon



My wife and I, we miss our little Harvey so

Back here in New Rochelle

That every single night, in the pale moonlight

We walk out on the patio and yell



Shine on, shine on, Harvey Bloom, up in the sky

You have been in orbit since January, February, June and July

Don't come back too soon, we rented out your room

So shine on, shine on, Harvey Bloom, up there on the moon



We'll miss you on the holidays, this year they're coming later

We hope you have a very lovely seder in your crater

Your mama sent the astronauts some chicken soup at school

They're using it instead of rocket fuel



If you like outer space, you oughta see your sister Janet

She came in with a hairdo that is from another planet

Your girl friend Shirley misses you, the Air Force says she had

A temper tantrum on the launching pad



Shine on, shine on, Harvey Bloom, up in the sky, under separate cover

I'm sending you some pickles and a corned beef on rye

You brought Bromo Seltzer with you, I presume

So shine on, shine on, Harvey Bloom



Harvey Bloom is on the moon, oh yeah
