   Now they make new movies in old black and white
  With happy endings, where nobody fights
  So if you find yourself in that nostalgic rage
  Honey, jump right up and show your age
  
  Chorus:
  I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
  The "Boston Blackie" kind
  A two toned Ricky Ricardo jacket
  And an autographed picture of Andy Devine
  
  I remember bein' buck-toothed and skinny
  Writin' fan letters to Sky's niece Penny
  Oh I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
  Then I could solve some mysteries too
  
  Then it's Bandstand, Disneyland, growin' up fast
  Drinkin' on a fake I.D.
  Yeah, and Rama of the jungle was everyone's Bawana
  But only jazz musicians were smokin' marijuana
  Yeah, I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
  Then I could solve some mysteries too
  
  Then it's flat top, dirty bob, coppin' a feel
  Grubbin' on the livin' room floor (so sore)
  Yeah, they send you off to college, try to gain a little knowledge,
  But all you want to do is learn how to score
  
  Yeah, but now I'm gettin' old, don't wear underwear
  I don't go to church and I don't cut my hair
  But I can go to movies and see it all there
  Just the way that it used to be
  
  Chorus:
  That's why I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
  The "Boston Blackie" kind
  A two-toned Ricky Ricardo jacket
  And an autographed picture of Andy Devine
  
  Oh, I could be anyone I wanted to be
  Maybe suave Errol Flynn or the Sheik of Araby
  If I only had a pencil thin mustache
  Then I could do some cruisin' too
  
  Coda:
  Yeah, Bryl-cream, a little dab'll do yah
  Oh, I could do some cruisin' too
