Jazz Shark

Listen up people, what’s that sound?
Can you hear the music that’s floating around?
Raise your hand like a fin, swim around in the dark —
Now you’re swimming like Louis, the jazz shark! Ba doo doo…
Louis' got a famous, four-piece band
They’re the coolest catfish not on land
Buddy Fish on drums, Charles Fin-gus on bass
Gill-espie on trumpet, Louis running the plaice!
Listen to Louis, the jazz shark!
Louis' quartet hits a high watermark
Why jazz, you ask? Because jazz is cool!
That’s what they all learned at jazz fishy school!
So listen up people, what’s that sound?
Can you hear the music that’s floating around?
Raise your hand like a fin, swim around in the dark —
Now you’re swimming like Louis, the jazz shark! Ba doo doo…
Sing like Louis — la la la!
Doesn’t matter what it is — no, da da da!
It don’t mean a thing if you ain’t gonna swim —
Now you’re swinging like Louis, the jazz shark!
So listen up people, what’s that sound?
Can you hear the music that’s floating around?
Raise your hand like a fin, swim around in the dark —
Now you’re swimming like Louis, the jazz shark! Ba doo doo…
