Zola - Scatting Song Lyrics

Don't give me no lyrics
They're too hard to learn
Too many words give me memory burn
But give me a melody and honey, just like that
I'll turn it into a song I can scat

I'll put a tune together from notes hanging 'round
I'll mix up some letters to make syllables of sound
Don't give me no sentences or stories to recall
I'd rather sing a song that makes no sense at all
I promise every line will end in a perfect rhyme
I'll even add a little rhythm to keep that scat in time

I can sing it high and I can sing it low
I can wing it on the fly
I can scat every song I know

Cinderella's fairy god-mother, she did it too
She went
Bibbidi bobbidi, bibbidi bobbidi, bibbidi bobbidi boo

If I forget my alphabet I have another choice
I can drum scat a hi-hat
And play air trombone with my voice

So forgive me if your favorite song is not what you expect
I might re-arrange it some but I mean no disrespect
'Cause I can't give up singing,
Though I might give up a verse
No, I won't be giving in to every singer's curse

'Cause I can still sing anything and never go wrong
As long as I remember to sing it as a scatting song
