| The last day of school was the first of June
|
| Me and Bobby watched the clock all afternoon
|
| Waitin' for the bell and Mrs. Greer
|
| To say have a good summer, see you next year
|
| That night I couldn’t sleep 'cause the very next day
|
| They started up the summertime matinees
|
| With a different movie every afternoon
|
| At the Melrose Avenue Cinema Two
|
| Me and Bobby rode rockets into outer space
|
| We drove Daytona and we won the race
|
| We shot a lotta bull and some bad guys too
|
| At the Melrose Avenue Cinema Two
|
| The Melrose Avenue Cinema Two
|
| Well the years went by and the price went up
|
| From a couple of quarters to a couple of bucks
|
| Bobby and his family moved away
|
| So I found my little girl to take his place
|
| Me and Betty saw our share of love scenes
|
| We even saw a couple on the movie screen
|
| John Wayne won the lady and I did too
|
| At the Melrose Avenue Cinema Two
|
| The Melrose Avenue Cinema Two
|
| Now the Melrose Avenue Cinema Two
|
| Is a second-hand store called Nothin' New
|
| All that’s left of the old marquee
|
| Is some broken glass and one crooked «T»
|
| And I watch old movies on a new TV
|
| With Betty on the couch sittin' next to me
|
| We still hold hands like we used to do
|
| At the Melrose Avenue Cinema Two
|
| The Melrose Avenue Cinema Two
|
| The Melrose Avenue Cinema Two
|
| Yes we do |
