A long time ago in South California
Oh-whoa-way-oh
In the land of the tall jacaranda
Oh-whoa-way-oh
Lived a girl group singing pop-rock favorites
Oh-whoa-way-oh
So good that they soon got famous
Oh-whoa-way-oh
(bridge)
Their sound and looks I liked
The first time I saw them
When the little one took the mic
I knew I’d fallen
(chorus)
I like the Bangle girl
She’s too groovy
I love the way she sings and I
I saw her movie way-oh
I like the Bangle girl
And I’m not joking
I want to be her friend and there’s
No harm in hoping
Some say a good singer’s gotta be angry
Oh-whoa-way-oh
But the Bangle girl sings good and she’s not angry
Oh-whoa-way-oh, yeah yeah
Some say the Bangle girl’s a slave to the camera
Oh-whoa-way-oh
But her song’s gonna sound like a tall jacaranda
Oh-whoa-way-oh
(bridge)
I’d show her books I’ve read
I’d play her my records
I’d listen to the things she said
I so respect her!
(chorus)
I like the Bangle girl
She’s too groovy
I love the way she sings and I
Sat through her movie way-oh
I like the Bangle girl
And I’m still hoping
Someday she’ll need a boyfriend
And I’m still not joking
