When Harpo Played His Harp - Jonathan Richman, The Modern Lovers

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?

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
