Song Lyrics

"You write similar songs like that one, huh?"

"We got one of those songs on the Top 40
At least it was on the Top 40 last week
We don't pay much attention to the Top 40 things
Because they're so perishable
This one even starts off with a timpani introduction
Didn't I tell you?"

I rode my bicycle past your window last night
I roller skated to your door at day light
It almost seems like you're avoiding me
I'm okay alone, but you got something I need

Oh, I got a brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key
I think that we should get together and try 'em out, you see
I been looking around a while, you got something for me
Oh, I got a brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key

"Hey, Murdoch
Are you ready?
Here it comes!"

I ride my bike, I roller skate, don't drive no car
I don't go too fast, but I go pretty far
For somebody who don't drive around, that's what I did
Some people think I've done all right for a kid (let's hear it!)

Oh, I got a brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key
I think that we should get together and try 'em out, you see
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la
Oh, I got a brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key

"That's all"
