The Lyrics
I've wrecked a Belmonts tune
That is so fine.
I should have stopped maybe at two.
I was fired up--
Should have retired, yup!
I just started crankin';
I sought sounds of "oun,"
But wimped it in Spanglish--
Couldn't craft it, a-u diphthong sound.
I've wrecked a Belmonts tune
That is so fine.
One or two
"Wand'rers?" Noooo!
Wrote a slew
I could do more--I vow
I'll stop right here
For crass quantity
Jay's my man now.
Don't fear me,
Though I've more "Spell"s to spew,
In the pipeline.
That is so fine.
I should have stopped maybe at two.
I was fired up--
Should have retired, yup!
I just started crankin';
I sought sounds of "oun,"
But wimped it in Spanglish--
Couldn't craft it, a-u diphthong sound.
I've wrecked a Belmonts tune
That is so fine.
One or two
"Wand'rers?" Noooo!
Wrote a slew
I could do more--I vow
I'll stop right here
For crass quantity
Jay's my man now.
Don't fear me,
Though I've more "Spell"s to spew,
In the pipeline.

Lucky for you, you did not do so on the actual Belmont Avenue, 'cause Dion and the boys would've wandered all over yo' face. Then you would've needed five prescriptions for painkillers.
yes you did....wonderfully so
Thanks, Michael, Alvin.
Great job, no matter how ya' Spell it
