When Harpo Played His Harp Songtext

von Jonathan Richman

Well when Harpo played his harp, it was a mystery
All the laughing stopped back to the balcony
Chico, Chico, sure to please
Now let's watch him shoot the keys
When Harpo would play his harp, all was still

When Harpo played his harp, it was a dream, it was
Well if someone else can do it, how come nobody does?
But Groucho, Groucho, fast as light
Some talk like him but not quite
When Harpo would play his harp, all was still, still

Well Harpo Harpo
This is the angels and
Where did you get that sound so fine?
Harpo Harpo
We gotta hear it
One more time

Harpo Harpo
We're in the galaxies and
Where did you get that sound so fine?
Harpo Harpo
We gotta hear it
One more time

Do you remember what he would do sometimes before he played?
Well he'd look up to the sky and he'd look the angels' way
Harpo Harpo, when you start
Tears of joy inside my heart
Harpo would play his harp and all was still

All right
Harpo Harpo
This is the angels and
Where did you get that sound so fine?
Harpo Harpo
We gotta hear it
Ooh, one more time

Well Harpo Harpo
We're in the galaxies and
Where did you get that sound so fine?
Harpo Harpo
We gotta hear it
Ooh, one more time
Oh-oh-oh-oh
One more time
