| Cue Sheet | - OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK Mainstream
Sides face grand square
I wish I had a pencil thin moustache
The Boston Blackie kind
A two-tone Ricky Ricardo jacket
An autographed picture, of Andy Devine
Four ladies chain, across that ring
You chain them home and promenade I sing
'Cause if I had a pencil thin moustache
I could solve some mysteries too
- FIGURE (twice for heads, twice for sides) Mainstream, corner progression
Heads square thru and get me four hands you know
Dosado with that girl
Swing thru tonight and let the boys run right
Bend that line and do the right & left thru
Flutter wheel then you will slide thru
Swing your corner, all promenade
'Cause if I had a pencil thin moustache
I could do some cruisin' too
- CLOSER Basic
Circle left
I wish I had a pencil thin moustache
The Boston Blackie kind
Left allemande and then you dosado
Left allemande, you weave that old ring
Well I could be anyone I wanted to be
Maybe suave Errol Flynn or the Sheik of Araby
If I only had a pencil thin moustache
I could do some cruisin' too
- TAG
Brylcreem, a little dab'll do ya
I could do some cruisin' too

| Lyrics |
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
I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
The Boston Blackie kind
A two-tone Ricky Ricardo jacket
And an autographed picture of Andy Devine
I remember being 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, growing up fast
Drinking on a fake I.D.
Yeah, and Rama of the jungle was everyone's B'wana
But only jazz musicians were smoking 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 living 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 getting 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
That's why I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
The Boston Blackie kind
A two-tone 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
Yeah, Bryl-cream, a little dab'll do ya
Oh, I could do some cruisin' too
