Then I could solve some mysteries too
So if you find yourself in that nostalgic rage
Yeah, but now I'm gettin' old, don't wear underwear
A two-toned Ricky Ricardo jacket
Try to gain a little knowledge
And an autographed picture of Andy Devine
Drinkin' on a fake I.D
Then I could do some cruisin' too
If I only had a pencil thin mustache
I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
Honey, jump right up and show your age
Just the way that it used to be
Then it's bandstand, Disneyland, growin' up fast
Then it's flat top, dirty bob, coppin' a feel
I remember bein' buck-toothed and skinny
That's why I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
Yeah, they send you off to college
The Boston Blackie kind
Grubbin' on the livin' room floor so sore
Maybe suave Errol Flynn or the sheik of Araby
A two toned Ricky Ricardo jacket
Oh I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
Oh, I could be anyone I wanted to be
But all you want to do is learn how to score
The Boston Blackie kind
Writin' fan letters to sky king and penny
Then I could solve some mysteries too
I don't go to church and I don't cut my hair
But I can go to movies and see it all there
But only jazz musicians were smokin' marijuana
And an autographed picture of Andy Devine
Pen-pencil thin mustache
Yeah, and Rama of the jungle was everyone's Bawana
Yeah, bryl-cream, a little dab'll do yeah
Yeah, I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
