RETRO pop songs --- from another millennium and another galaxy.
My name's Pete. from Birmingham in UK-land. Nice to meet you ! I made a lot of very varied popsongs in the pre-digital age. I say they're McCartneyish, as I don't know how to categorize them. Allsorts. The description I use is RETRO I'm really a songwriter who wants others to perform these songs. So please bear that in mind as you grimace at my efforts to be acceptable. I'm especially concerned to write good lyrics, and if you do ever give some time to my stuff, I hope you will click to the lyrics and read those also. They don't come easy, you know. I'm plonking my songs here to give them a home, in the hope you might think they're not too bad. In fact, in the hope that you'll snap them up and I'll become an instant overnight megastar multi-millionaire. But failing that, I hope that you just like them. And if you do like one - I'd especially like it if you told me so. We all need strokes, eh ? Cheers ! Pete Songs-in-a-Bottle

Lyrics
coming up to Saturday night everybody knows where to go all the groovy guys and chicks are gonna be there showing off the moves that they know everybody follows what's hip all the latest swinginest jives Billy's brought a stack of groovy 78's Jimmy's brought some new 45's so now the Dansette is dropping an ep on the deck the needle clunks as it falls in the groove the living room has turned into a palais de danse and everybody's getting ready to move and then you bop yer baby, bop yer baby, bop yer baby, bop bop bop bop bop yer baby, bop yer baby, bop yer baby, bop bop bop bop in the middle part of the room winklepicker boy with his girl holding hands and coming close then pulling apart practising an underarm twirl fluorescent lemon-green socks on the flashing teddy boy feet ponytails all thrashing when the girls turn their heads following the sound of the beat and even more party-poppers come round ringing the bell and even more start to pour through the door and when they hear the music with their baby in hand they join the dancing on the living-room floor and then you bop yer baby, bop yer baby, bop yer baby, bop bop bop bop bop yer baby, bop yer baby, bop yer baby, bop bop bop bop Susie's in a polka-dot dress Jimmy stands with feet open wide clasping Jimmy's hands she does a slide through his legs rising on the opposite side Billy pushes Peggy away but his fingers do not let go see you later alligator, that's what he says bringing her right back with a tow all the boys super slicky with their brilliantine hair and all the girls keep on shouting for more and when the music's playing on a Saturday night they all go bopping on the living-room floor
