Dead Milkmen In Praise Of Sha Na Na Lyrics

In Praise Of Sha Na Na Lyrics

Sha Na Na were the kings of Woodstock

You know it's true deep in your heart

Greasy guys in gold lamae

If only Hendrix had been so smart

Pete Townshend wouldn't be so deaf

If he had followed Sha Na Na's advice

and played some fifties do-wop songs

That even your mom would think are nice



Keith and Janis went away

But Sha Na Na are here to stay

I don't care about Joan Baez

But Sha Na Na can wear my fez



Sha Na Na were the kings of the sixties

Deep in your heart you know it's true

All those lids are Berkley dressed like Bowser

They didn't like the Stones or the Who

Sha Na Na didn't need no flower power

They didn't drive a yellow submarine

But they were the ones who called the shots

Yeah, Sha Na na really made the scene



Sha Na Na..killed Kennedy

Sha Na Na..stabbed that guy at Altamont

Sha Na Na..started the Peace Corps

Sha Na Na..were the first astronauts

Sha Na Na..grew organic food

Sha Na Na..led student sit-ins

Sha Na Na..joined the Black Panthers

Sha Na Na..never seemed to fit in



You can move to Montana and listen to Santana

But you still won't be as cool as Sha Na Na
