Jimmy Buffett - Pencil Thin Mustache lyrics

[Jimmy Buffett - Pencil Thin Mustache lyrics]

Now they make new movies in
Old black and white
With happy endings, where nobody fights
So if you find yourself
In that nostalgic rage
Honey, jump right up and show your age

I wish I had a pencil thin moustache
The Boston Blackie kind
A two toned Ricky Ricardo jacket
And an autographed picture of Andy Devine
I remember bein' buck-toothed and skinny
Writin' fan letters to Sky's niece Penny
Oh, I wish I had a pencil thin moustache
Then I could solve some mysteries too

Then it's Bandstand, Disneyland
Growin' up fast drinkin' on a fake ID
Yeah, and Rama of the
Jungle was everyone's Bawana
But only jazz musicians


Were smokin' marijuana, yeah

I wish I had a pencil thin moustache
Then I could solve some mysteries too
Thin, thin, pencil thin mustache

Then it's flat top, dirty bop, coppin' a feel
Grubbin' on the livin' room floor, so sore
Yeah, they send you off to college
Try to gain a little knowledge
But all you want to do is learn how to score

Yeah, but now I'm gettin' old
Don't wear underwear
I don't go to church and I don't cut my hair
But I can go to movies and see it all there
Just the way that it used to be

That's why I wish I had
A pencil thin moustache
The Boston Blackie kind
A two-toned Ricky Ricardo jacket
And an autographed picture of Andy Devine
Oh, I could be anyone I wanted to be
Maybe suave Errol Flynn or the Sheik of Araby
If I only had a pencil thin moustache
Then I could do some cruisin' too

Yeah, Brylcreem, a little dab'll do yah
Oh, I could do some cruisin' too
