I did an important thing today. It has taken way longer than it should have but I finally googled the lyrics and figured out what they were saying:

Down on the corner

Out in the street

Willy and the Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined that’s what they said. in fact, I’ve gone all this time having literally no clue. I feel a lot better, now.
