PAUL
Your Happy eyes and Adorable hair,
Make distant miles too much to bear.
Your style and rhythm to see and hear,
Make me wish that you were near.
Your liveliness and cheerful smile,
Always causes me to see,
How wonderful life with you could be.
Paul, this is the way I'll always feel,
When I think of you, life becomes real.

It was a GRAY, SUNNY DAY and MISTER FLYNN was IN NEED OF A FRIEND. He said I GOTTA GET AWAY FROM IT ALL. So, CAPTAIN SAD AND HIS SHIP OF FOOLS took him across INDIAN LAKE. He spent the night under a NEWSPAPER BLANKET. When he awoke he took the PATH OF LOVE to the RAIN, THE PARK AND OTHER THINGS. There he met a POOR BABY. Friends were made and he was so happy that he said WE CAN FLY. So it was A TIME FOR REMEMBRANCE.

In Newport stands a gorgeous home,
Complete in every way,
A singing family lives within,
The brightest sound today.
Their music is delightful
And I'm sure you will agree,
So come along as I recall
The COWSILL FAMILY TREE!
To Bud & Barb their first was born,
The Cowsills had a boy,
They named him Bill, and he became
His parents' pride and joy.
But soon 'twas mass confusion,
For the twins had entered too,
Yes Bob and Dick have come to join,
The MERRY COWSILL CREW!
Well, Mini-Mom was on the go,
She had no time to rest,
With three small boys to care for now,
She did her very best.
And once again the family grew,
They had increased one more,
When Paul arrived to join the rest,
He made THE BROTHERS FOUR!
Who's next to join their happy cast?
Well, Barry filled the spot,
My goodness, what a family,
Five boys is quite a lot.
However, soon another came,
He was the Sixth-born son,
His name was John and after him,
The REIGN OF BOYS WAS DONE.
For then the joy they'd waited for,
A precious little pearl.
Her name was Susie - yes at last,
The Cowsills had a girl.
Their singing in harmonious,
Their records number one,
They're tires - yes, but happy too,
When every day is done.
Their great big home in Newport,
Right along the Easter coast,
Is filled with Love - and to the Cowsills,
THAT'S WHAT MEANS THE MOST!
