I used to watch you with those young girls by your side

Telling you all the songs they did or didn't like

Rating the records was the part I liked the most

The only question was the planet of the host

On American Bandstand

You look just the same and

You're not growing older like everyone else and I'm wondering

You might be a spaceman

Mr. American Bandstand

Cause you're not growing older like everyone else and I'm wondering

You'd always smile and introduce the latest rage

Richard you've seen everybody walk across your stage

I think it's time somebody wrote a song for you

We really like you and my Mother likes you too

On American Bandstand

You look just the same and

You're not growing older like everyone else and I'm wondering

You might be a spaceman

Mr. American Bandstand

Cause you're not growing older like everyone else and I'm wondering

Could it be that Rock 'n' Roll music made you stay so young

Those Rock 'n' Roll songs

Could it be that Rock 'n' Roll music

Could it be those Rock 'n' Roll songs On American Bandstand
