lyrics

ICE CREAM MAN (LIVE ’88)
(Words and music by Herb Garden)

Ah - you’ll be so lucky!

Ahhh…..
I’ve got a feeling for something sweet
I look around all dazed and confused
I put my hand into my pocket
And pull out a 50p coin

So I walk towards the illuminated van
And there in front of me stands the man
Mr ice cream man
Mr Ice Cream Man
All I wanted was a Cornetto®!

Ice cream man ice cream man all I wanted was a Cornetto®
Ice cream man ice cream man all I wanted was a Cornetto®
Floating thru hyperspace, floating thru hyperspace
Floating thru hyperspace 1-2, 1-2
Floating thru hyperspace, floating thru hyperspace
Floating thru hyperspace 1-2, 1-2
Ice cream man ice cream man all I wanted was a Cornetto®
Ice cream man ice cream man all I wanted was a Cornetto®
Scream for ice scream, ice cream for I scream
Ice cream for I scream, I scream for ice cream. Yeah.
Ice cream man ice cream man all I wanted was a Cornetto®
Ice cream man ice cream man all I wanted was a Cornetto®
Floating thru hyperspace, floating thru hyperspace
Floating thru hyperspace 1-2, 1-2
Floating thru hyperspace, floating thru hyperspace
Floating thru hyperspace 1-2, 1-2
Ice cream man ice cream man all I wanted was a Cornetto®
Ice cream man ice cream man all I wanted was a Cornetto®

Oooohhh

Ahhhh-oowwwww
Dahhhh aahhh ahh ahhhh
Dah-dah-dah da da da …
Dddrrrlllkkk!

I’ve got another feeling for something sweet
I look around all dazed and confused
I put my hand into my pocket
And puuu-uulll, pull out, a 50p coin

So I walk towards the illuminated van
And there in front of me stands the man
Mr ice cream man
Mr Ice Cream Man
All I wanted was a Cornetto®!

Cornetto® Cornetto® Cornetto® Cornetto®!

Dah da da da dar!

[Guitar solo: Phil]
