Well, I don't care about history
(Rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school)
'Cause that's not where I wanna be
(Rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school)
I just wanna have some kicks
I just wanna get some chicks
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school
Well, the girls out there knock me out, you know
(Rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school)
Cruisin' around in my GTO
(Rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school)
I hate the teachers and the principal
Don't wanna be taught to be no fool
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun, rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun, rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun, rock 'n' roll high school
Fun fun, oh baby
Fun fun, oh baby
Fun fun, fun fun
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school
(Verse 1)
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school
(Chorus)
Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock 'n' roll high school

OH OH I LOVE HER SO
I met her at the Burger King
We fell in love by the soda machine
So we took the car downtown
The kids were hanging out all around
Then we went down to Coney Island
On the coaster and around again
And no one's gonna ever tear us apart,
‘cause she's my sweetheart
All right, oh yeah
Oh oh I love her so
Oh oh I love her so
Oh oh I love her so
x2
Hanging out on a night like this
I'm gonna give her a great big kiss
I'm gonna make her mine,
and everything's gonna be real fine

Repeat chorus

Sent to spy on a Cuban talent show
First stop, Havana go go

Pickin' the banana
Hooray for Havana
Baby baby make me loco
Baby baby make me mambo

LOCKET LOVE
Lovely lovely locket love
You could use a little of
Hang a chain around you
You're hangin' too
Hang on a little bit longer
Hang on you're a goner

Try to expose you
For what you put me through
Hang on a little bit longer
Hang on you're a goner
Never never can tell
How hard you fell
Lovely lovely locket 'cause
The best poison of
Lovely lovely locket love
You got a pocket of
Lovely little tricks you do

DON’T COME CLOSE
You know it's generally known
You got everything at home
Kisses out of desperation
Bring you more aggravation
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close
You bring out your souvenirs
Soak them wet with your tears
You lose your imagination
Out of more aggravation
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close
You turn red with rage
But act your age
Only thing that you regret
You need more time to forget
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close
Repeat verse 1
Repeat chorus
Repeat bridge
Repeat chorus x2

Carbona Not Glue

CARBONA NOT GLUE
Wondering what I'm doing tonight
I've been in the closet and feel all right
Ran out of Carbona, Mom threw out the glue
Ran out of paint and roach spray too
It's TV's fault why I am this way
Mom and pop wanna put me away
From the early morning movie to the late late show
After it's over nowhere to go
And I'm not sorry for the things I do
My brain is stuck from shooting glue
I'm not sorry for the things I do
Do
Carbona not glue
Carbona not glue
Hey

LISTEN TO MY HEART
Next time I'll listen to my heart
Next time, well I'll be smart
Next time I'll listen to my heart
Next time, well I'll be smart
(verse)
That girl could still be mine
But I'm tired of the hurt
Tired of tryin'
I'm tired of the pain
Tired of tryin'
I'm tired of cryin'
(verse)
That girl could still be mine
But I'm tired of the hurt
Tired of tryin'
I'm tired of the pain
Tired of tryin'
I'm tired of cryin'

Tommy And The Rockets Odense, Denmark
Good time power poppin' rock 'n' roll.
It’s the essence of the Beach Boys, Rockpile, and The
Ramones all rolled into one.
Tommy and The Rockets are the 1963-65 Beach Boys reborn in 2016 Denmark - armed with supremely infectious melodies, harmonies to die for, and a stack of Ramones singles. If you remember rock n' roll radio, this is your new favorite band!
