charlie parker tune: Eddie Jefferson arrangement)



Verse I

-------



What is the Musical topic, of the Day?



Bebop so the critic's say, well that was ok!



Who were the originators, do you know?



Yardbird and Dizzy tell me, I think it's quite so.







Chorus

------



Now I'm just holding thumbs (?) like, Toscaninni and La Cost (?)



Well, as long as I'm hip to it, I think I'm hipper to the how,



explain it to the folks...





Verse II

--------



Bebop my friends was just a whole lotta fun!



You could take any old riff, and make a real long run.
