Who remembers this great song?

Way on the other side of the Hudson
Deep in the bosom of suburbia
I met a young girl she sang mighty fine
Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria
Standing by the water fall in Paramus Park
She was working for the friends of BAI
She was collecting quarters in a paper cup
She was looking for change and so was I

She was a Jewish girl
I fell in love with her
She wrote her number on the back of my hand
I called her up,
I was all out of breath
I said, "Come hear me play in my rock and roll band"
I took a shower and I put on my best blue jeans
I picked her up in my new V double U van
She wore a peasant blouse with nothing underneath
I said "Hi"
She said, "yeah, I guess I am"
Ariel, Ariel

We had a little time, we were real hungry
We went to Dairy Queen for something to eat
She had some onion rings, she had a pickle
She forgot to tell me how she didn't eat meat
I had a gig in the American Legion hall
It was a dance for the Volunteer Ambulance Corps
She was sitting in a corner against the wall
She would smile and I melted all over the floor
Ariel, Ariel

I took her home with me, we watched some TV
Annette Funicello and some guy going steady
I started fooling around with the verticle hold
We got the munchies so I made some spaghetti
We sat and we talked into the night
While channel 2 was signing off the air
I found the softness of her mouth
We made love, the bombs bursting in air
Ariel, Ariel
Ariel, Ariel

Way on the other side of the Hudson
Deep in the bosom of suburbia
I met a young girl
She sang mighty fine
Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria

Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria
Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria


DEAN FRIEDMAN - "Ariel" lyrics

2. How 'bout this one?


blenders - macdonald's girl

From the album: yellow magic orchestra

I leave from softball practice everynight
It's getting dark but the Golden Arches light up the way
I turn the corner at the traffic light
I count my money then i reherse what i'm gonna say
I'd like an order of fries
A Quarter pounder with chese
I love the light in your eyes
Will you go out with me please?
Chorus:I am in love with the MacDonald's girl
She has a smile of innocence
So soft tender and warm
I am in love with the MacDonald's girl
She is an angel in a polyster uniform
She doesn't try to impress anyone
She doesn't act real tough like all the other girls that I know
She doesn't treat me like a simpleton
She's not afraid to be the only other virgin I know
And when my hamburger's cold
I get up ready to go
She's only 16 years old
And i'm in love with her so
Chorus
And as i head for the door
The movement catches her eye
My heart begins to soar
She smiles and waves goodbye
Chorus
She is an angel in a polyster uniform x2
