Artist/Band: Sparks
Lyrics for Song: Pamela, Pamela
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Sparks



Pamela, Pamela (1966)

(Gouldman)



Pamela, Pamela

Remember the days

Of inkwells and apples

And books and school plays

Where little Brer Rabbit kissed Pooh in the wood

And Fluff was the cat that sat on the rug

Oh, Pamela

I remember so well



When Laurel and Hardy were shown at the flicks

With sticky red lollies on splintery sticks

Pigtails and ribbons and crushes on miss

Secret discussions about a first kiss

But you were young

And everything was new

Impatient to do things you couldn't do

Oh, Pamela, Pamela

You started to grow

Answers to questions you wanted to know



When the rest of your childhood

Forgets as a dream

And the harshness of life

Dims those peaches and cream



When Laurel and Hardy were shown at the flicks

With sticky red lollies on splintery sticks

Pigtails and ribbons and crushes on miss

Secret discussions about a first kiss

But you were young

And everything was new

Impatient to do things you couldn't do


Pamela, Pamela

Sparks' 1974 hit 'Pamela, Pamela' stands as a quintessential example of the duo's unique blend of surf rock and psychedelic pop. Recorded during the height of their career, the track features the signature vocal interplay between Ron and Richard Sparks, characterized by their distinct harmonies and playful delivery. The song's upbeat tempo and catchy melody were staples of the era's dance floors, reflecting the optimistic and slightly surreal aesthetic that defined their discography. While often associated with the broader New York rock scene of the mid-1970s, Sparks maintained a distinct identity through their songwriting, which frequently explored themes of everyday life with a touch of whimsy. This recording remains a cherished part of their catalog, showcasing their ability to craft memorable tunes that transcended their specific genre labels to become enduring favorites among fans of classic rock and surf music.
