about

This song is a double-tribute of sorts: written in honor of Peter Noone and Herman's Hermits and greatly influenced by the stripped down style of Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lover's Rock'n and Romance. Originally released on the ep "Rock'n'Roll Dance Party, Shindig vol. 2" by Knock Knock Records, and re-released on our singles and rareties collection "Christmas for Breakfast" (Whoa Oh Records).

lyrics

I, Herman, Herman I am
I play with the Hermits
We're a rock n' roll band
I, Herman, Herman that's me
The greatest pop singer in all history

We play our guitars (strum, strum)
practice in our garage
working on our songs
so that we can be stars (singing)

I, Herman, Herman I am
I play with the Hermits
We're a rock n' roll band
I, Herman, Herman that's me
The greatest pop singer in all history

We sang for the Queen
about Henry her King
We've got wild hair ­
it's the tops with the teens (singing)

I, Herman, Herman I am
I play with the Hermits
We're a rock n' roll band
I, Herman, Herman that's me
The greatest pop singer in all history

Traveling by balloon
Hermania Rules!
Chewing bubblegum
Rock music's such fun!
