When I Put the Record On

It started on a lonely Friday
 The world was gray and overcast again
 I couldn't find no one to be my friend
 Locked the bedroom door as always
 Saw my brother's records laying there
 And so began a life-long love affair
 I put the record on the stereo
 And though I wasn't quite a Romeo
 The loneliness was gone
 When I put the record on
 And with the spinning of the turn table
 I felt a burden lifted from my soul
 I saw a new day dawn
 When I put the record on
 Years went by and still I struggled
 Lovers lost to what I could not say
 Running from the sober light of day
 But as the world around me crumbled
 I heard the sweet and lyrical refrain
 Heroes walking homeward through the rain
 I put the record on the stereo...
 And it said:
 Shalalalala Shalalalalala
 You ain't alone in your sorrow
 Shalalalala Shalalalalala
 You ain't alone in your pain
 Shalalalala Shalalalalala
 You'll feel better tomorrow
 I put the record on the stereo...
