Mickey's Mousketeers
(Bob Pasquarello & John Krumm)               (c)

Oh the year was 1955,
How I wish I had some sherbet now,
Disney turned the cameras on
And yelled for "Places, everyone!"

cho: Gosh darn them all, I was told
     We'd watch TV 'til we grew old
     See the same old programs every year
     Now I'm a broken man with these silly ears
     The last of Mickey's Mouseketeers!

Every day right after school
How I wish I had some sherbert now
Yes every single afternoon,
I'd watch those Meesekar- Mousekartoons


I had a crush on dear Annette,
How I wish I had some sherbert now
And my poor heart still gives a flutter
When I eat Skippy Peanut Butter

Oh the year was 1959
How I wish I had some sherbert now
Turned the TV on and thought it odd,
No "Spin & Marty," no Jimmy Dodd!


But now I've got my VCR
How I wish I had some sherbert now
And every single afternoon
I watch re-runs of Mousekartoons

     Gosh darn them all, I was told
     We'd watch TV 'til we grew old
     See the same old programs every year
     Now I'm a broken man with these silly ears
     The last of Mickey's Mouseketeers!
