SONG: The Nicest Kids In Town
ARTIST: Marc Shaiman & Scott Wittman
From the musical, Hairspray
G#7

(Ooh ooooo,
        D#m7  G#7
Ooh ooh ooooo,
    D#m7  C#
Ooh ooooo,

G#7                      C#7                G#7
Ev'ry afternoon when the clock strikes four
                G#7
(bop bee ba, ba ba ba ba ba, bee ba)
  C#7                       C#7              G#7
A crazy bunch of kids crash through that door
                G#7
(bop bee ba, ba ba ba ba ba, bee ba)
     D#
They throw off their coats
              C#
And leave the squares behind
              D#
And then they shake it, shake it, shake it
             C#
Like they're losing their mind
             D#
You'll never see them frown
                   C#   B   C#G#G#7
                            /  
'Cause they're the nicest kids in town

(Ooh ooooo, 
           E7
Ooh ooh ooo)
A7                            D7
Every afternoon you turn your T.V. on
 A7                A7
(na, na, na, na, na, na na na na)
       D7
And we know you turn the sound up when your parents are gone, yeah!
 A7                A7
(na, na, na, na, na, na na na na)
             E
And then you twist and shout
         D
For your favorite star
                E
And once you've practiced every step
               D
That's in your repertoire
           E
You better come on down
             D      C    D/A  A7
And meet the nicest kids in town
D7
Nice white kids who like to lead the way
    A
And once a month we have our "negro day!"
    F#m                      B
And i'm the man who keeps it spinnin' round
    D                            B
Mr. Corny Collins with the latest, 
                  E
Greatest Baltimore 
     F
Sound!!
   A#7                  D#7        A#7
So every afternoon drop everything
(bop bee ba, ba ba ba ba ba, bee ba)
        D#7                                            A#7
Who needs to read and write when you can dance and sing?
                A#7
(bop bee ba, ba ba ba ba ba, bee ba)
   F
Forget about your algebra
    D#
And calculus
        F
You can always do your homework
       D#
On the morning bus
             F
Can't tell a verb from a noun
            D#   C# D#A#A#7
                    /  
They're the nicest kids in town

A#     F#7
       B7                                E7         B7
So, if every night you're shaking as you lie in bed
(mony mony, ah ooh, mony mony)
        E7                                      B7
And the bass and drums are pounding in your head
(mony mony, ah ooh, mony mony)
    F#7
Who cares about sleep when you can 
E7
snooze in school?
F       F#7
They'll never get to college
         E7
But they sure look cool
             F#7
Don't need a cap and a gown
                   E      D   E/B  B7
'Cause they're the nicest kids in town

They're the nicest. Nicest
            E/A   B7
They're the nicest. Nicest
E/A         B7
They're the sugar 'n' spicest,
F#m7            E/A
The nicest kids in...
